Lyrics
You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset She's going off about something that you said 'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday night I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like And 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 Walk in the streets with you in 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 can light up this whole town I haven't seen it in a while Since she brought you down You say you're fine, I know you better than that Hey, what you doing with a girl like that? She wears high heels I wear sneakers 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 Standing by and waiting at your backdoor All this time how could you not know, baby? You belong with me You belong with me 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 'bout to cry And I know your favorite songs And you tell me 'bout 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, baby? You belong with me You belong with me You belong with me Have you ever thought just maybe You belong with me? You belong with me
About
The song “You Belong With Me” by Taylor Swift is featured in the Netflix documentary “Miss Americana”. In 2009, the song was being performed and its music video was being awarded at the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs). However, what made this performance memorable was an incident involving Kanye West. During her acceptance speech for winning Best Female Video, West famously took the stage and declared that Beyoncé should have won the award instead. This act of humiliation put Swift in an uncomfortable spotlight, forever remembered as the unfortunate victim of this Kanye West onstage tirade. Furthermore, this event highlighted a long-established power dynamic between men and women in the music industry. In “Miss Americana”, Swift revisits this moment and shows her strength in the face of adversity. The song still stands as a powerful anthem for female empowerment, and serves as a reminder that even in moments of hardship, you can have resilience with the support of great music. The “You Belong With Me” music video was extremely innovative and creative for a such a young artist, and is one her most beloved music videos, and songs, by her fans.
