You cut me down a tree and brought it back to me
~#**************#~
And thats what made me see where I was going wrong
~#**************#~
You put me on a shelf and kept me for yourself
~#**************#~
I can only blame myself, you can only blame me
~#**************#~
[Chorus 1]
~#**************#~
And I could write a song a hundred miles long
~#**************#~
Well, thats where I belong, and you belong with me
~#**************#~
And I could write it down or spread it all around
~#**************#~
Get lost and then get found, or swallowed in the sea
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
You put me on a line and hung me out to dry
~#**************#~
And darling, thats when I decided to go see
~#**************#~
You cut me down to size and opened up my eyes
~#**************#~
Made me realize what I could not see
~#**************#~
[Chorus 2]
~#**************#~
And I could write a book, the one theyll say that shook
~#**************#~
The world and then it took, it took it back from me
~#**************#~
And I could write it down or spread it all around
~#**************#~
Get lost and then get found, and youll come back to me
~#**************#~
Not swallowed in the sea
~#**************#~
[Interlude]
~#**************#~
(Ooh, ah)
~#**************#~
(Ooh, ah-ah-ah)
~#**************#~
[Chorus 3]
~#**************#~
And I could write a song a hundred miles long
~#**************#~
Well, thats where I belong, and you belong with me
~#**************#~
The streets youre walking on, a thousand houses long
~#**************#~
Well, thats where I belong, and you belong with me
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
Oh, what good is it to live with nothing left to give?
~#**************#~
Forget, but not forgive, not loving all you see
~#**************#~
All the streets youre walking on, a thousand houses long
~#**************#~
Well, thats where I belong, and you belong with me
~#**************#~
Not swallowed in the sea
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
You belong with me, not swallowed in the sea
~#**************#~
Yeah, you belong with me, not swallowed in the sea
