Hey, I can understand
How it might be kind of hard for you to love a man like me
I don't blame you much for wanting to be free
I just wanted you to know that I
Loved you better than your own kin did
Right from the very start
It's my own fault what happens to my heart
Because I've always known you'd go
And do what you've got to do
My wild sweet love, though it may mean that
I'll never kiss those sweet lips again
Pay that no mind if you find that dappled dream of yours
You can come on back and see me when you can
I know you feel bad, I know you feel so sad
They say that you don't treat me like you should
Well, they have ways to make you feel no good
But they have no way of knowing that I had my eyes
Wide open from the very start
You never ever, you never ever lied to me
The part of you they'll never see is the part you've shown
Go on and do what you've got to do
My wild sweet love, though it may mean that
I'll never kiss those sweet lips again
Pay that no mind if you find that dappled dream of yours
You can come on back and see me when you can
