Understand

[Intro]

I made you think you don't understand

[Verse 1]

I used to think that happiness could only be something

That happened to somebody else

Everybody believed, everybody but me, yeah, yeah

And I've been hurt so many times before

That my hope was dyin', so sick of tryin'

Everybody could see, everybody but me, yeah, yeah

But then you came into my life, you opened up my softer side

And I could see into your eyes

And suddenly, I realized

[Chorus]

I made you think you don't understand

All the times you didn't understand

Why you couldn't just be my man

I made you think you don't understand

There were many walls you had to climb

If you really wanted to be mine

I made you think you don't understand

After all the hoops I put you through

Now I see that I'm in love with you

Now, I hope you finally understand

[Verse 2]

So many tears I had to cry

But you had many more of your own you had to dry

But you stuck it out and you're here with me now, yeah, yeah

And rememberin' the days I pushed away your love

You called my bluff and you still stayed around

Yeah, you figured me out

Said, you got me down

And there's no way to lie to you, you know me better than I do

Baby, ooh, you see me through

I'd be no good without you

[Chorus]

I made you think you don't understand

All the times you didn't understand

Why you couldn't just be my man

I made you think you don't understand

There were many walls you had to climb

If you really wanted to be mine

I made you think you don't understand

After all the hoops I put you through

Now I see that I'm in love with you

Now, I hope you finally understand

Oh

[Bridge]

Baby, won't you listen now?

Can't you see just what I'm talkin' 'bout?

Said, baby, won't you listen now?

Can't you see just what I'm talking about?

Time went on, and I was wrong

To keep my distance for so long

So afraid, you wouldn't stay

But you never turned away

Always right by my side

You're forever in my life

Don't you go, 'cause now I know

That in you, I've found a home

Now I can see into your eyes

Suddenly, I realize

[Chorus]

I made you think you don't understand

All the times you didn't understand

Why you couldn't just be my man

I made you think you don't understand

There were many walls you had to climb

If you really wanted to be mine

I made you think you don't understand

After all the hoops I put you through

Now I see that I'm in love with you

[Outro]

I made you think you don't understand
