You Don't Understand Me (Abbey Road Sessions November 15, 1995)

I've been up all night

You've been putting up a fight

Seems like nothing I say gets through

How did this old bed fit a world between me and you?

We said good night, but the silence was so thick

You could cut it with a knife

We've hit the wall again and there's nothing I can do

You're the one

Yeah, I've put all my trust in your hands

Come on and look in my eyes

Here I am, here I am

'Cause you don't understand me, my baby

'Cause you don't seem to know that I need you so much

'Cause you don't understand me, my feelings

The reason I'm breathing, my love

The morning comes and you're reaching 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, here I am

'Cause you don't understand me, my baby

'Cause you don't seem to know that I need you so much

'Cause you don't understand me, my feelings

The reason I'm breathing, my love

You don't seem to get me, my baby

'Cause you don't really see that I live for your touch

'Cause you don't understand me

My dreams or the things I believe in, my love

'Cause you don't understand me

You don't understand me

No, no

Understand me
