Everything But The Girl I Dont Understand Anything Lyrics

I Dont Understand Anything Lyrics

What is it that I think I need? 

 Is there love in me that wants to be freed? 

 Or is it selfishness and ego 

 we carry with us everywhere that we go? 

  

 This feeling that life's incomplete 

 - do you feel that too? 

 Do you want what I want? 

  

 And if I should start to cry, 

 and I can't begin to tell you why, 

 and I stumble when I begin, 

 it's cause I don't understand anything. 

  

 People say that we're so close, 

 how can there be something that I don't know. 

 Oh but even though I share your bed, 

 baby, I don't get inside your head. 

  

 This feeling of some mystery 

 - do you feel that too? 

 Do you know what I mean? 

  

 And if I should start to cry, 

 and I can't begin to tell you why, 

 and I stumble when I begin, 

 it's cause I don't understand anything. 

  

 Watch me stumble, watch me slip 

 My fingers loose their grip. 

 Now I'm down on my knees, 

 Is that what you wanted to see? 

  

 What is it that I think I need? 

 What is it that I think I need? 

  

 And if I should start to cry, 

 and I can't begin to tell you why, 

 and I stumble when I begin, 

 it's cause I don't understand anything. 

  

 You reach for me from miles away, 

 you reach for me from miles away
