You Don't Understand Me

You Don't Understand Me

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
C'mon 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
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

Oh, 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, no, no
Understand me
