Love Story
We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
Your standin there, on a balcony in summer air
See the lights
See the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
You say hello
Little did I know, oh
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliette."
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
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter,
And my daddy said "Stay away from Juliette."
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 tryin' 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 life story, baby just say "Yes.'"
Oh........
I got tired of waiting,
Wondering if you were ever comin' 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 thy head? I don't know what to think"
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said,
"Marry me, Juliette, you'll never have to be alone.
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad go pick out a white dress
It's a love story baby just say "Yes."
Oh, oh....
We were both young,
When I first saw you |

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?
