I Don’t Understand You
lead vocal: Rob
We’re not the same
You’ve got your crowd, I’ve got mine
And I don’t dig the games you dig
Though I know they suit you fine
We both have other people
Kinda half-in-our-lives
Keeping us from trying
Too hard to make it work
Nothing seems quite worth the pains required
I dream of her and you smirk
But I know you love him still, though you act so sick-and-tired
I talk, you listen, you smile, you cry
All at the same time
I don’t understand you, I don’t understand you
I don’t understand why I love you
Try to pretend that I
Never saw the other girl, and then
Try to begin to see
You can’t have everything in the world
We’re not the same—oh, no
You’ve got your crowd, I’ve got mine
And I don’t dig the games you dig
Though I know they suit you fine
Try not to see my contradictions coming through
Try to understand how I could feel these things for you
Try to ignore the bad, but only on my cue
Try to understand me, try to understand me
Try to understand why I love you
‘Cause I don’t understand why I love you
