You Don't Understand Me

[Verse 1] I've been up all night You've been putting up a fight Seems like nothing I say gets through How did this old bed fit a world between me and you? We said "Goodnight," but the silence was so thick You could cut it with a knife We've hit the wall again, and there's nothing I can do You're the one Yeah, I've put all my trust in your hands Come on and look in my eyes Here I am, here I am [Chorus] You don't understand me, my baby You don't seem to know that I need you so much You don't understand me, my feelings The reason I'm breathing, my love [Verse 2] The morning comes and you're reaching out for me Just like everything's the same And I let myself believe things are gonna change When you kiss my mouth and you hold my body close Do you wonder who's inside? Maybe there's no way we could feel each other's pain Tell me why it gets harder to know where I stand I guess loneliness found a new friend, here I am [Chorus] 'Cause you don't understand me, my baby 'Cause you don't seem to know that I need you so much 'Cause you don't understand me, my feelings The reason I'm breathing, my love 'Cause you don't understand me [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] 'Cause you don't understand me, my baby You don't seem to know that I need you so much 'Cause you don't understand me, my feelings The reason I'm breathing, my love Oh, you don't seem to get me, my baby 'Cause you don't really see that I live for your touch You don't understand me My dreams or the things I believe in, my love [Outro] You don't understand me 'Cause you don't understand me No, no Understand me
