You're on the phone with your brother—he's upset,
He is afraid because of all the things you said
'Cause he doesn't get how you love like I do.
I'm in my room, it's a typical Tuesday night.
I'm trying to figure out why it’s you that he doesn't like.
And he'll never understand you like I do.
But he wears long coats
I wear short coats
He's a giant country
And I'm on the Baltic coast
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?
Walk through the snow with you in your worn out dress
I can't help thinking these times are what I like best
Sitting on a park bench thinking to myself
"Why can’t it be easy?"
And you've got a smile
That can light up this whole town.
I haven't seen it since you
Started to hunt him down.
You say you're fine—I know you better than that.
Hey, why do you go after him like that?
He’s scary like a ghost
I’m more scared than most
He's a giant country
And I'm on the Baltic coast
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, Bela?
You belong with Lithuania,
You belong with me.
Oh, I’ll remember to not come to your house
In the middle of the night.
You make me want to laugh
When you try to make me cry.
I know your favorite songs,
And I’ve learned 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 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, Bela?
You belong with Lithuania,
You belong with me.
You belong with me.
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me?
You belong with me.
