Don't Misunderstand
Grady Tate · All Love [2002]
We are only strangers
On our way to somewhere else
To some place we forgot
Don't mistake my smile
It just means I am lonely
So love me till this day has passed
And then forget we met
We're just spending time
In some secret place
Yielding to a softened day
To love, blow the pain away
Don't misunderstand
You are no concern of mine
But in case you're free sometime
And you need sometime with me sometime
To hold my hand, then I will, I will understand
We're just spending time
In some secret place
Yielding to a softened day
To love, blow the pain away
Don't misunderstand
You are no concern of mine
But in case you're free sometime
And you need sometime with me sometime
To hold my hand, then I will wonder, I will understand
Don't Misunderstand
