Do You Mind Too Much If I Don't Understand

Willie Nelson · Other Songs - Willie Nelson

I'd be the last one to tell you that you shouldn't go

And, the first to say be happy if you can

But to lie and hurt someone who needs and loves you so

Do you mind too much, if I don't understand?

I suppose that you're convinced this is the thing to do

Life is short and sweet, break all the hearts you can

I guess, I shouldn't be surprised, it's all a game to you

But do you mind too much, if I don't understand?

Forgive me, but it all seems so unreal to me

And my heart and me, we'd made so many plans

But that's all over now, there's nothing left to do

But do you mind too much, if I don't understand?

Forgive me, but it all seems so unreal to me

And my heart and me, we'd made so many plans

But that's all over now, there's nothing left to do

But do you mind too much, if I don't understand?

Do you mind too much, if I don't understand
