If You Don't Understand Songtext

von Shirley Bassey

He can be the biggest wheel
That human nature has invented
But I'd never change him if I could
And when ever he's away from me
I nearly go demented
I'd leave him if I could
He's the face up on the pillow
That I'll always want to turn to
But I'll never know how long he'll stay
You may ask me
Why I'll choose to live this way?
Well I'm a woman

[Refrain]
If you don't understand
You've never known a love that was real
You've never known the way that I feel
Each time he leaves me

If you don't understand
You've never known the impossible dreams
You've never known the hell
That it means to be missing him, wanting him

He can take me to the moon
Each time he puts his arms around me
Only he can take the moon away
And if I regret the day
This way that love had ever found me
I'd be too proud to say
He can smile
And I surrender
But I couldn't live without him
He 's a losing game I'll always play
You may ask me why
I'll choose to live this way?
Well I'm a woman

[Refrain]

If you don't understand
You've never known the impossible dreams
You've never known the hell
That it means to be missing, him wanting him

[Refrain]

If you don't understand
You've never known the impossible dreams
You've never known the hell
That it means to be missing him, wanting him
