Understanding Songtext
von Judie Tzuke

Understanding all the reasons that you have
For keeping just a step away
You better stop believing that deceit
It′s never gonna pay
Understanding that the light of every day
Holds a different feeling
You better stop believing that there'll be no more grieving
About it next time ′round

This time you seem so sure
You're talking like I've never heard before

Oh, this time I want to believe in what you say
This time I want you to know that if I stay


I′m understanding all the reasons that you have
For keeping just a step away
But believe me when I tell you that for now
There has to be another way
Understanding that the light of every day
Holds a different feeling
You better stop believing that there′ll be no more grieving
About it next time 'round

This time, so sure
You′re talking like you never did before

Oh, this time I want to believe in what you say
This time I want you to know that if I stay

Do you listen when I tell you that I'm tired
Of keeping one more step away?
Now the game that we′ve been playing has been changed
And it's by my rules that we play
Like a child that follows blindly in the dark
Watching and believing
I′m much stronger than I would be torn apart
Fooled by shallow pleading

This time
(You might say that we all need secrets)
(But I say that you're running away)

This time
(You can say that I won't wait forever)


(But I′m giving you one more day)
This time
(You might say that we all need secrets)
(But I say that you′re running away)
Talking like you never did before
(You can say that I won't wait forever)
(But I′m giving you one more day)
This time
(You might say that we all need secrets)
(But I say that you're running away)

Want to believe in what you say
(You can say that I won′t wait forever)

(But I'm giving you one more day)
This time
(You might say that we all need secrets)

(But I say that you′re running away)
Want you to know that if I stay
(You can say that I won't wait forever)

(Understanding, understanding)
(But I'm giving you one more day)
This time
(You might say that we all need secrets)
(But I say that you′re running away)
(Understanding, understanding)
But I say that you′re running away
(You can say that I won't wait forever)

(Understanding, understanding)
(But I′m giving you one more day)
This time
(You might say that we all need secrets)
(But I say that you're running away)
