We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes
And the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights
See the party the ball gowns
I see you make your way through the crowd
And say hello little did I know
That i was Romeo i was throwing pebbles
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don't go
Cause you belong me
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
So glad you made time to see me
How's life Tell me how's your family
I haven't seen them in a while
You've been good busier than ever
A small talk work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why
Because the last time you saw me
Is still burned in the back of your mind
You gave me roses and I left them there to die
So this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I go back to December all the time
Someday I’ll be living in a big old city
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
Someday I’ll be big enough so you can’t hit me
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean
Don't you worry your pretty little mind
People throw rocks at things that shine
And life makes love look hard
Why you gotta be so hard
The waters rough
But this love is ours
We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been
Till you put me down oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been
I'm feeling 22
Losing her was blue like I'd never known
Missing her was dark grey all alone
Forgetting her was like trying to know
Somebody you've never met
But loving her was red so red
Loving her was red so red
Loving her was red so red
Loving her was red so red
