I Understand

The Four Freshmen

Why do you go on pretending

You know you want to be free

Darling, you know I'll let you go

You'd do the same for me

I understand

And darling, you are not to blame

If when we kiss it's not the same

I understand

It's not your fault because your heart has changed it's mind

You didn't mean to be unkind

I understand

Forgetting you will be far from easy

I've grown so used to your charms

I'll miss that old thrill and no one can fill

The place here in my arms

But if you find our love was really meant to be

Then darling, hurry back to me

And I'll understand

I understand

And darling, you are not to blame

If when we kiss it's not the same

I understand.

It's not your fault because your heart has changed it's mind

You didn't mean to be unkind

I understand

Forgetting you will be far from easy

I've grown so used to your charms

I'll miss that old thrill and no one can fill

The place here in my arms

But if you find our love was really meant to be

Then darling, hurry back to me
