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
