You Don't Understand Me

Roxette · Giftpack [2008]

I've been up all night

You've been putting up a fight

Seems like nothin' 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 nothin' 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.



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 breathin'

My love.



The mornin' comes and you're reachin' 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

(Loneliness found)

Here I am.



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 breathin'

My love.

'Cause you don't understand me.



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 breathin'

My love.



You don't seem to get me

My baby

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

You don't understand me

You don't understand me

Understand me.
