Understand lyrics

(I may do things you don't understand)

I used to think that happiness could only be something

That happened to somebody else

Everybody believed, everybody but me, yeah yeah

And I've been hurt so many times before,

That my hopes was dying, 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

And now I can see into your eyes

And suddenly, I realize

(I made you think, you don't understand)

All the times you didn't understand,

Why you couldn't just 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 put you through,

Now I see that I'm in love with you

Now, I hope you finally understand

So many tears I had to cry

But you had many more of your own you had to dry

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

And rememberin' the days I pushed away your love,

You called my bluff and you still stayed around,

Yeah you figured me out

Said, you got me down

And there's no way to lie to you,

You know me better than I do

Baby, ooh, you see me through,

I'd be no good without 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 put you through (through)

Now I see that I'm in love with you, now

I hope you finally understand

Baby, won't you listen now,

Can't you see just what I'm talking 'bout?

Said, baby won't you listen now,

Can't you see just what I'm talking 'bout?

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

'Cause now I know

That in you I found a home

Now I can see into 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)

I made you think you don't understand

After all the hoops I put you through

Now I see I'm in love with you

(I may do things you don't understand)
