Old - Gord Bamford

Why'd it go wrong when it should've gone right Why do we run when there's no need to fight I can't go on if I'm not alone or talking to you You never knew all the mountains I've climbed When I'm with you there's no passing of time All of my dreams have been realized and taken away Why do I pray? Oh why do I, why do I stay? When the Sun's so far away Well, I hope this is my last day Blame it on me, things that I never did A hundred and three, keep my lying in bed I'm so afraid to hear people talk, these things they believe Half truths and lies they're drinking like wine The other sides don't get anytime Listen to her, don't miss him at all Or listen to me Why do I breathe? Oh, why do I, why do I leave? When you're all that I can see Well, it's time for honesty I want love But I don't just want love, I want you I see the beach house, your sweet mouth But the terrible news Is that love is not how it seems on the screen Yeah, real love has problems But it's what's in-between that's the best The way that she looks when she's dressed For an all quiet Tuesday Always a blue day with you And darling I died for the sun rays that may not have ever been real But still I miss you and I wish you would come back to me Like you used to and last June, you came after me And they need to be the one you see But I can't see you anymore Am I blind or just finding out that it's always been like this The last kiss was only an accident 'Cause I can't get past you and I can't forget secret war But I pray and I stay No matter the distance I'll wait, or I'll wait for old Eden's resistance 'Cause we grew together but I feel so alone

We nearly drowned for such a silly thing Someone who loves me now better than you And that pretty friend is finally yours, and I'll be around on Sunday, if You'll meet me at blue diner I'll take coffee and talk about nothing, baby At blue diner, I'll take anything you wanna give me, baby I haven't told anyone, just like we promised Have you?

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 my 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 '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 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 'bout 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 back door 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 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 back door 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
