Song Description

It's about learning too late how to make a relationship work. And about loving someone and staying in a situation that is bad. We've all been there.

Lyrics

Now I Understand

Go away now
Back to the world that you cling to
Go away now
Don?t worry you always were a real gentlemen
Speak softly to me baby
And tell me how it?s going to be
Is she the reason that you?re leaving?
Or are there pieces of me you can?t see?
I gave you all that I had
Go away now
Is it enough to know you cared?
I watch you try to make amends
But I don?t want to be your friend
Do you understand?

You say I don?t understand you lately
Well now I understand

Now I Understand that love is a give and take
And I trusted you, while you lied to my face
How dare you take, all I had to give.
How dare you lie, then tell me I don?t understand

Does she understand you any better?

Now all my thoughts are gone
Here you stand with nothing to say
Did you forget you made a promise?
Was she just a passing phase?
Go away now
I?m sure that I will be just fine
There was me before you arrived
Slam the door and turn out the lights
You?ve got someplace to go
You say I don?t understand
Well now I understand

Now I understand those nights that you had to work late
There was someone else busy taking my place
How dare you take all I had to give
How dare you lie
While I waited, in the bed that we made

Now I understand
Now I Understand
