You cut me down a tree and brought it back to me And that’s 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 And I could write a song a hundred miles long Well, that’s 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 You put me on a line and hung me out to dry And darling, that’s when I decide to go to sea You cut me down to size and opened up my eyes Made me realize what I could not see And I could write a book, the one they’ll 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 you’ll come back to me Not swallowed in the sea And I could write a song a hundred miles long Well, that’s where I belong and you belong with me The streets you’re walking on a thousand houses long Well, that’s where I belong and you belong with me Ah, what good is it to live with nothing left to give Forget but not forgive Not loving all you see Oh, the streets you’re walking on a thousand houses long Well, that’s where I belong and you belong with me Not swallowed in the sea You belong with me, not swallowed in the sea Yeah, you belong with me, not swallowed in the sea
