Lyrics for Song: You Don't Understand Me
Lyrics for Album: Don't Bore Us - Get To The Chorus!
IÂ’ve been up all night,
youÂ’ve been putting up a fight
Seems like nothinÂ’ 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.
WeÂ’ve hit the wall again and thereÂ’s nothinÂ’ I can do
YouÂ’re the one, yea,
IÂ’ve put all my trust in your hands.
Come on and look in my eyes,
here I am, here I am
You donÂ’t understand me, my baby,
You donÂ’t seem to know that I need you so much.
You donÂ’t understand me, my feelings,
the reason IÂ’m breathinÂ’, my love
The morninÂ’ comes and youÂ’re reachinÂ’ out for me
just like everythingÂ’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 whoÂ’s inside?
Maybe thereÂ’s no way we could feel each otherÂ’s pain.
Tell me why it gets harder, to know where I stand.
I guess loneliness found a new friend, here I am
You donÂ’t understand me
You donÂ’t seem to get me, my baby,
You donÂ’t really see that I live for your touch
You donÂ’t understand me,
my dreams or the things I believe in, my love
You donÂ’t understand me.
You donÂ’t understand me.
Understand me.
