Then the understanding dies
See everyday we're living
Is understanding
What I need from you
I wanna be with you
I don't mean to be demanding
What I need from you
What I need from you
Is understanding
I wanna be with you
So simple as 1-2-3
So simple as 1-2-3
So simple as 1-2-3
But I want some understanding
How can we communicate
And I know the things
You don't really know me
Baby, they're all demands
What I need from you
What you wanna do
If you don't hear what I say
Understanding is what we need
No, you should listen to me boy
Is understanding
Then the understanding dies
If you don't hear what I say
But you don't wanna meet me half way
Is understanding
What I need from you
Understanding is what we need
But the choices you make
Is understanding
Is understanding
I listen to you, baby
I try so very hard to make you understand
How can we communicate
If we don't pull together
You're going through
That's why I'm still here with you,baby
If you don't hear what I say
That's not the way it should be
I try to understand
But I want some understanding
I try so very hard to keep our love alive
Is one thing that will always be unsure
Please let our love endure
How can we communicate
I don't mean to be demanding
If you don't hear what I say
But you don't wanna meet me half way
There's no way that we can work it out
I try so very hard to keep our love alive
What I need from you
But I want some understanding
How can we communicate
There's no way that we can work it out
I try so very hard to keep our love alive
You just wanna do
Understanding is what we need
Is understanding
That's why I need you baby, pleading, baby
But you don't wanna meet me half way
I wanna be with you
If we don't pull together
What I need from you
Then the understanding dies
Understanding is what we need
If we don't pull together
So simple as 1-2-3
How can we communicate
What I need from you
Is understanding
What I need from you
There's no way that we can work it out
If you don't hear what I say
Is understanding
I don't mean to be demanding
So simple as 1-2-3
