Intro

 

Verse 1

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

Pre-Chorus

'Cause she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

Chorus

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

Instrumental

    

Verse 2

Glistening grass from September rain
Gray overpass full of neon names
You drive (Mm-mm)
Eighty-five (Mm-mm)
Gallatin Road and the Lakeside Beach
Watching the game from your brother's Jeep
Your smile (Mm-mm)
Miles wide

Chorus

And it was not an invitation
Should've kissed you anyway
Should've kissed you anyway
And it was not convenient, no
But your girlfriend was away
Should've kissed you anyway, hey

Verse 3

Walkin' 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 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, whatcha doing with a girl like that?

Pre-Chorus

She wears high-heels, I wear sneakers
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

Chorus

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 back door
All this time, how could you not know, baby?
You belong with me, you belong with me

Verse 4

Shiny wood floors underneath my feet
Disco ball makes everything look cheap
Have fun (Mm-mm)
It's prom (Mm-mm)
Wilted corsage dangles from my wrist
Over his shoulder, I catch a glimpse
And see (Mm-mm)
You looking at me

Chorus

And it was not an invitation
But as the 50 Cent song played (Song played)
Should've kissed you anyway (Anyway)
And it was not (And it was not) convenient (Convenient), no
Would've been the best mistake
Should've kissed you anyway, hey

Bridge

Don't make it awkward in second period
Might piss your ex off, lately, we've been good
Staying friends is safe, doesn't mean you should 
Don't make it awkward in second period
Might piss your ex off, lately, we've been good
Staying friends is safe, doesn't mean you should 
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
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

Chorus

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 back door
All this time, how could you not know, baby?
You belong with me, you belong with me

Instrumental

    

Verse 5

When I left school, I lost track of you
Abigail called me with the bad news
Goodbye
And we'll never know why

Chorus

It was not an invitation
But I flew home anyway
With so much left to say
It was not convenient, no
But I whispered at the grave
"Should've kissed you anyway", ooh
And it was not (It was not) an invitation (Invitation)
Should've kissed you anyway (Anyway)
Should've kissed you anyway (Anyway), anyway
And it was not-

Post-Chorus

My advice is always ruin the friendship
Better that than regret it for all time
Should've kissed you anyway 
And my advice is always answer the question
Better that than to ask it all your life
Should've kissed you anyway

Outro

You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
Should've kissed you anyway
You belonged with me
