Xscape - Understanding lyrics

rate me

What I need from you is understanding

How can we communicate

If you don't hear what I say?

What I need from you is understanding

So simple as 1-2-3

Understanding is what we need

You don't really know me

You just wanna do what you wanna do

That's not the way it should be, no

You should've listen to me

(You should've listen to me, boy)

I try so very hard

To make you understand

But the choices you make

Baby, they're all demands

I try so very hard

To keep our love alive

But you don't wanna meet me halfway

Then the understanding dies

There's no way that we can work it out

If we don't pull together

I don't mean to be demanding

But I want some understanding

I wanna be with you

~chorus~

I listen to you, baby

And I know the things you're going through

I try to understand

That's why I'm still with you

(That's why I'm still with you, boy)

See, everyday we're living

Is one that will always be unsure

That's why I need ya babe

I'm pleadin' baby

Please let out love endure

I try so very hard

To keep our love alive

But you don't wanna meet me halfway

Then the understanding dies

There's no way that we can work it out

If we don't pull together

I don't mean to be demanding

But I want some understanding

I want to be with you

~repeat chorus to fade~
