George Michael Understand Lyrics

Understand Lyrics

Woman, don't you ever wonder 

Where you'd be if I just walked on by 

What's your name?

Can I take your number?

Darling come with me

I'm going to change your life 



When you're young you think you're winning 

Why worry 'til the babies cry? 

I was wrong; it's the blues we're singing 

Chasing after pennies just to survive. 



And there's no way the gods are hearing me baby 

They don't even try

They don't even try 

And all the things I said I'd give you 

Just seem to pass me by

No matter how I try 



I hope you understand 

This is not what I had planned for us 

God only knows if my dreams are coming or gone 

(Are coming or gone)



But you're still holding my hand

Sweetheart (sweetheart) 

And for every single day you're here 

It's crystal clear 

That God isn't mad at me at all

He ain't mad at me at all 



And all this praying hard ain't gonna save the day 

Maybe that's really what I'm guilty of 

I know we live in times when love is not enough 

It's not enough

(no no no no no) 



And there's no way the gods are hearing me 

Baby, they don't even try

They don't even try 

And all the things I said I'd give you 

Just seem to pass me by

(No matter how I try)



I hope you understand 

This is not what I had planned for us 

Heaven only knows if our dreams are coming or gone 

(Coming or gone, coming or gone) 

But you're still holding my hand

Sweetheart (Sweetheart) 



So for every single day that you're here 

It's crystal clear 

That God isn't mad at me at all 

He ain't mad at me at all 



There's a place in my mind 

Somewhere we could be fine 

Where the children would play 

And we'd eat like kings every day 



(Some more promises)



(like kings on Christmas Day)
