Until You Understand

It's hard to stay, it's hard to look into your eyes
when I say I'm leaving
I can't be sure but I think I made up my mind
although your heart is bleeding

I wish the only one I had to be was me
for you to see this clearly
I wish the only thing I had to do was to
hold my arms around you

so long, so hard
until you understand

and somehow I feel I'm pulling away your ground
before I've even started
to realise my words have caught you by surprise
makes it even harder

I wish there was a way to make you read the signs
I'm bringing you this evening
I wish the only thing I had to do was to
hold my arms around you
