"Understand"

I made you think, you don't understand.

I used to think that happiness could only be something

To happen to somebody else.

Everybody believed, everybody but me, yeah yeah.

And I've been hurt so many times before

That my hopes was dying, I was so sick of trying.

Everybody could see, everybody but me, yeah yeah.

But then you came into my life, you opened up my softer side.

Now I can see, to your eyes.

Suddenly, I realize.

I made you think, you don't understand.

All the times you didn't understand

Why you just couldn't be my man.

I made you think, you don't understand.

There were many walls you had to climb

If you really wanted to be mine.

I made you think, you don't understand.

After all the hoops I pushed you through

Now you see I'm in love with you.

Now, I hope you finally understand.

So many tears I've had to cry

But you had many more of your own.

You had to try

But you stuck it out and you're here with me now

And remember when the days when I pushed away your love

You called my beloved and you still stayed around

Yeah you figured me out. Said, You got me down.

And there's no way I lie to you, you know me better than I do.

Baby, ooh, you see me through

I'll be good with out you.

I made you think, you don't understand.

All the times you didn't understand

Why you just couldn't be my man.

I made you think, you don't understand.

There were many walls you had to climb, (yeah)

If you really wanted to be mine. (ooh)

I made you think, you don't understand.

After all the hoops I pushed you through, (through)

Now you see I'm in love with you.

Now, I hope you finally understand.

Ohh.

Baby, won't you listen now

Can't you see what I'm talking about

Said baby won't you listen now

Can't you see what I'm talking about?

Time went on, and I was wrong

To keep my distance for so long.

So afraid, you wouldn't stay

But you never turned away

Always right by my side

You're forever in my life.

Don't you go

It's not mine, no, It ain't you

I found my home.

I could see, to your right

Suddenly, I realize.

I made you think, you don't understand.

All the times you didn't understand

Why you just couldn't be my man.

I made you think, you don't understand.

There were many walls you had to climb

If you really wanted to be mine.

I made you think, you don't understand.

After all the hoops I pushed you through

Now you see I'm in love with you.

Now, I hope you finally understand.

I made you think, you don't understand.
