Understand
I know you don’t understand, the things I’m going through
But it hasn’t been an easy thing, falling in love with you
Everything I’ve dreamed of, all that I had
You said you didn’t mean it or make me feel sad
I seem to live it everyday, no matter how I’ve tried
To forget all the heartache, but knowing that you lied
It hurts so deeply; the pain won’t go away
No matter how hard you try or what you have to say
I shouldn’t have to feel this way; it’s been way to long
I know you can end it all and you know that it is wrong
I’ve tried to understand, I’ve tried to let it go
Doing things your way, she still doesn’t seem to know
I wish we could change places, just for one day
So you could feel, then I’d like to hear you say
That you tried your best to tell her, that you want no more
And your friendship has ended as you walk out the door
The damage that it’s causing, between you and I
And in my private moments, all I do is cry
I wonder if you truly know, it’s tearing me apart
It’s hurting all the love I have, taking from my heart
There has to be an end, I can’t tell you how
Something that you have to do, no better time than now
I feel I’ve given all I have, to share my life with you
Now it’s time to set it straight, something you need to do
You seemed bewildered when we’ve talked, as if you didn’t know
The distance that I’m feeling and if it didn’t show
Heartache that I’m feeling, sadness on my face
The little things I’m seeing, the numbers that I trace
Points in all directions and you want me to believe
That you haven’t done anything and there’s nothing up your sleeve
Yet there’s still so much doubt, please make it go away
Tell me you’re loving me, I want to hear you say
You’ll never ever hurt our love or even make me cry
Or never again from your lips, will you speak another lie
Your arms around me, hold me like before
Take all those thoughts away, I can’t take it anymore
Tell me that you’re sorry, for doing that to me
And then just maybe, I can set it free
Don’t you know that all I want, is to live my life with you
All I ask in return, is that you love me too
Help me to feel again, your loves for only me
Make me know for sure, that you’ll always be
That special man that said his vows and whispered, “I do”
There’s only one thing I do best, and that is loving you
