You don't understand me

Words & Music by Per Gessle & Desmond Child

I've been up all night, you've been puttin' 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, yea, 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? Maby there's

no way we could feel each other's pain. Tell me why it

get's harder to know where I stand. I guess loneliness

found a new friend, here I am / You don't understand me

... / 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
