You get mad, say you’re hurt
Well baby I’m hurt too.
I’ve tried so hard to be patient
I don’t know what else to do
I’ve thought so many times
Maybe this isn’t for me
But just when I want to give up
I look at you and come back to reality
I just don’t understand
What it is you want from me
I’ve given you all I have
And still you’re not happy
Maybe I’ve given to much
Maybe I shouldn’t do all I can
But then that wouldn’t make things better
I just don’t understand
I go to work, I come home
I’m always been around for you
It’s my own fault, but how do I change it
You know, I think it’s to late too
I grit my teeth everyday
Looking for the strengths to go on
Everyday I find that strength in you
That’s what keeps me coming home
I just don’t understand
What it is you want from me
I’ve given you all I have
And still you’re not happy
Maybe I’ve given to much
Maybe I shouldn’t do all I can
But then that wouldn’t make things better
I just don’t understand
No one could replace you
There is no one who could compare
I was looking long before you came along
There just isn’t anyone out there
What I have here with you
No women can take that away
I took your hand and married you
That means I’m here to stay
I love you and I apologize
If somehow I’ve let you down
But I only give what you’re willing to give back
Until I’m buried deep in the ground
I just don’t understand
What it is you want from me
I’ve given you all I have
And still you’re not happy
Maybe I’ve given to much
Maybe I shouldn’t do all I can
But then that wouldn’t make things better
I just don’t understand
