Begin To Understand
Thoughts of you run through my mind
More and more each day
When we are alone together
I don’t tell you what I want to say
You have captured me so completely
Mind, body and soul
I feel like I am a puppet
Of which you have control
Now I dangle lifelessly
On the ends of knotted strings
Waiting for you patiently
While you do other things
Thoughts of you run through my mind
While it’s so easy to ignore
Someone that truly loves you
Like you have never felt before
I was so afraid of being hurt
My true feelings were not shown
Why did I expect anything else
When my feelings were not known
So now, I feel my heartbreak grow
Yet again by my own hand
When will I ever learn
Or begin to understand
More and more each day
When we are alone together
I don’t tell you what I want to say
You have captured me so completely
Mind, body and soul
I feel like I am a puppet
Of which you have control
Now I dangle lifelessly
On the ends of knotted strings
Waiting for you patiently
While you do other things
Thoughts of you run through my mind
While it’s so easy to ignore
Someone that truly loves you
Like you have never felt before
I was so afraid of being hurt
My true feelings were not shown
Why did I expect anything else
When my feelings were not known
So now, I feel my heartbreak grow
Yet again by my own hand
When will I ever learn
Or begin to understand
