You Belong With Me

You’re on the phone
With your girlfriend
She’s upset
She’s going off about
Something that you said
She doesn’t get your humor
Like I do
I’m in my room
It’s a typical tuesday night
I’m listening to the kind of music
She doesn’t like
She’ll never know your story
Like I do
But she wears short skirts
I wear t-shirts
She’s cheer captain
And i’m on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day
When you wake up and find
That what you’re looking for
Has been here the whole time
If you could see
That i’m the one
Who understands you
Been here all along
So why can’t you
See you belong with me
You belong with me.
Walking the streets
With you and your worn out jeans
I can’t help thinking
This is how it ought to be
Laughing on a park bench
Thinking to myself
Hey, isn’t this easy?
And you’ve got a smile
That could light up this whole town
I haven’t seen it in awhile
Since she brought you down
You say you’re fine
I know you better than that
Hey whatchu doing
With a girl like that
She wears high heels
I wear sneakers
She’s cheer captain
I’m on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day
When you wake up and find
That what you’re looking for
Has been here the whole time
If you could see
That i’m the one
Who understands you
Been here all along
So why can’t you
See you belong with me
Standing by and
Waiting at your backdoor
All this time
How could you not know
Baby
You belong with me
You belong with me.
[Instrumental]
Oh, I remember
You driving to my house
In the middle of the night
I’m the one who makes you laugh
When you know you’re about to cry
And I know your favorite songs
And you tell me about your dreams
Think I know where you belong
Think I know it’s with me
Can’t you see
That i’m the one
Who understands
Been here all along
So why can’t you see?
You belong with me.
Have you ever thought
Just maybe
You belong with me?

Love Story

We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I’m standing there on a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say hello, little did I know
*courtesy of LirikLaguIndonesia.Net
That you were Romeo
You were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don’t go
And I said
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet ’cause we’re dead if they knew
So close your eyes, escape this town for a little while
Oh, oh, oh
‘Cause you were Romeo,
I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don’t go
And I said
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes
Romeo, save me, they’re trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it’s real
Don’t be afraid, we’ll make it out of this mess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes
Oh oh
I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town
And I said
Romeo save me, I’ve been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head, I don’t know what to think
He knelt to the ground and he pulled out a ring
And said
Marry me, Juliet, you’ll never have to be alone
I love you and that’s all I really know
I talked to your dad, you’ll pick out a white dress
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes
Oh, oh, oh, oh
‘Cause we were both young when I first saw you

Back To December

I'm so glad you made time to see me.
How's life, tell me how's your family?
I haven't seen them in a while.
You've been gone, busier then ever.
We small talk, work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why.

Cause the last time you saw me
Is still burned in the back of your mind.
You gave me roses and I left them there to die.

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night,
And I go back to December all the time.
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I realized what I had when you were mine.
I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right.
I go back to December all the time.

These days I haven't been sleeping
Staying up playing back myself leaving,
When your birthday passed and I didn't call.
And I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughing from the passenger side
Realized that I loved you in the fall.
Then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind.
You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye.

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night.
And I go back to December all the time.
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I realized what I had when you were mine.
I'd go back to December turn around and change my own mind.
I go back to December all the time

I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile, so good to me, so right,
And how you held me in your arms that September night,
The first time you ever saw me cry.
Maybe this is wishful thinking,
Probably mindless dreaming
If we loved again I swear I'd love you right.

I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
So if the chain is on your door, I understand.

But this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night,
And I go back to December.
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I realized what I had when you were mine.
I'd go back to December turn around and make it alright.
I'd go back to December turn around and change my own mind.
I go back to December all the time.

All the time
