Understand

by Courtney Knirk   Nov 30, 2004


I don’t think you understand the feeling I get when I can’t be with you, no one knows.
So sit down, listen good, and I’m gonna tell you just exactly how it goes.

I have to live without you day after day.
It feels like a crime I didn’t do but I still have to pay.

When I’m told that I can’t be with you when I thought I would.
I feel like you don’t care and you didn’t try everything you could.

I feel as if I can’t move anything and my mind has gone blank.
All day I wait to ask you one question, I do and everything just sank.

But when we’re together it’s a totally different story to me.
My whole world is full of love, happiness, and glee.

I get chills that go throughout my whole body just from a simple thing such as a hug from you.
My skin arises; I get goose bumps, I loose my thoughts, and just don’t know what to do.

The feeling when we make love feels so right,
But then I think that is I let go of it, I might lose you so I always hold on tight.

I put my life in your arms hoping nothing becomes fake,
I take everything with precaution because I’m afraid I might make a mistake.

I never wanna lose any of what I just said,
Because I fear that if I do, I’d breakdown in the worst way and probably end up dead.

I also understand that you need time and so do I,
But I still wanna see you, please don’t make me cry.

But then you tell me no, that I can’t be with you right now, not at the time.
I’m gonna miss out on the things that make me happy and complete, but hey that’s fine.

I’m not furious or upset, but hurt and crying.
It hurts so bad I feel that there’s nothing short or better than dying.

I love you more than anything in this world and nothing can change that,
But please understand babe, that with you, is the only place I wanna be at.
