Here I am alone again tonight Talking to myself'again Lately, I've been seeing less of you What's a man to do? I understand that you've been busy I understand there's not much time You've always got the best intentions Every single time As the hours of the night roll by Just like your alibis, I stop and think(stop and think) It's not like I don't really know you well' Sometimes I think I know you better (than you know yourself) I understand that it's been crazy And you can't be by my side You've got the perfect explanation Every single time baby, every single time I understand'ooohh I understand oh baby and now i understand I understand' oohh oh oh oh If absence makes the heart grow Fonder, why do I grow Stronger in my resolve Everyday I notice I'm becoming someone Someone who understands Oh baby I understand I understand I understand you really miss me But you can't be by my side You always got the best excuses You're such a creative girl You always seemed to keep me waiting And now I really understand That I'm the one who should be changing I will never ever wait again, wait again, wait again I understand'I understand'I understand I used to think you really loved me But know I know that you just don't care You just don't care about me baby, no, So now when I leave you, I hope you understand
