Songs with Analogies

[|You Belong With Me- Taylor Swift] You're on the phone with your girlfriend, She's upset She's going off about something that you said She doesnt get your humour like I do

I'm in the room, its a typical Tuesday night I'm listening to the kind of music she doesnt 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 bout the day when you'll wake up and find That what you're lookin 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

Walkin the streets with you in your worn out jeans I cant help thinking this is how it ought to be Laughing on the park bench thinkin to myself Hey isnt this easy?

And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town I havent seen it in awhile, since she brought you down You say you find I know you better than that Hey, Whatcha doing with a girl like that?

She wears high heels, I wear sneakers She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming bout the day when you'll 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

Standin by, waiting at your back door All this time how could you not know that? 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 about to cry I know your favorite songs and you tell me about your dreams I think I know where you belong. I think I know it's with me.

Can't you see that I'm the one who understand you? Been here all along so why can't you see? You belong with me

Standing by or waiting at your back door All this time how could you not know that You belong with me You belong with me

Have you ever thought just maybe You belong with me You belong with me

Three Written Examples Pupils are more like oysters than sausages. A street light is like a star. The stray dog was a lot like my ex-husband; it showed up whenever it wanted to, it didn't look like it had bathed in weeks, and it would disappear every time I got used to it being around. On top of that, it was always hungry, and expected me to spring for lunch. Ashley Kern Did This.

Why weren't we able To see the signs that we missed And try an' turn the tables?

I wish you'd unclench your fists And unpack your suitcase Lately there's been too much of this But don't think it's too late

Nothin's wrong Just as long as you know that someday I will

Someday, somehow Gonna make it alright but not right now I know you're wondering when (You're the only one who knows that)

Someday, somehow Gonna make it alright but not right now I know you're wondering when

Well I'd hoped that since we're here anyway We could end up saying Things we've always needed to say So we could end up stringing

Now the story's played out like this Just like a paperback novel Let's rewrite an ending that fits Instead of a Hollywood horror

Nothin's wrong Just as long as you know that someday I will

Someday, somehow Gonna make it alright but not right now I know you're wondering when (You're the only one who knows that)

Someday, somehow Gonna make it alright but not right now I know you're wondering when (You're the only one who knows that)
