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
