You Don't Understand

Here I am, girls o' mine, pleadin' but it's all in vain
 Here I am, out of line, can't we make it up again?
 You know, baby, there's no maybe, I love only you
 You the only one and no one else will do
 It makes me forgive when you turn me away
 But I know, dear, that you don't understand
 Won't you believe anything I say?
 But I know, dear, that you don't understand
 Open up your heart, let me in your heart, I'm pleadin'
 No one else will do, 'cause it's only you I'm needin'
 My fate you hold, my love, in your hands
 But I know, dear, that you don't understand
 I'm so blue, in despair, 'cause you have turned me down
 I don't know, if you care, I don't come around
 You know, honey, it's so funny, when you treat me bad
 Won't you hear me pleadin', 'cause I'm goin' mad
 It makes me cry, when you laugh in my face
 But I know, dear, that you don't understand
 Now I see why I can't hold first place
 'Cause I know, dear, that you don't understand
 For your love I'll strive, sure as I'm alive, I'll bet you
 Then you'll forgive, soon you'll forgive, I'll get you
 Then you'll see all the things that I've planned
 But I know, dear, that you don't understand
