So baby
When I'm near you
You can't feel me
I'm lightnin'
You used to come by
And sit down by my side
You would come in close
And take off all my clothes
Every time I think that I've been takin' the steps
You end up mad at me for makin' a mess
I can't understand
Why you don't understand me baby
And every day I wake up and I make money for myself
And though we share a bed you know that I don't need your help
Do you understand
You don't understand me baby
All the ivy
Is growing sideways
You won't stop it
'Til it covers all of our place
Every time I think that I've been takin' the steps
You end up mad at me for makin' a mess
I can't understand
Why you don't understand me baby
And every day I wake up and I make money for myself
And though we share a bed you know that I don't need your help
Do you understand
You don't understand me baby
If I go right and you go left
Hey I know we'll meet up again
And if you go left and I go right
Hey maybe that's just life sometimes
Every time I think that I've been takin' the steps
You end up mad at me for makin' a mess
I can't understand
Why you don't understand me baby
And every day I wake up and I make money for myself
And though we share a bed you know that I don't need your help
Do you understand
You don't understand me baby
