 then
 
 I'm  not going down on my knees, begging you to adore me
 
 Can't  you see it's misery and torture for me
 When  I'm misunderstood,  try as  hard as you can,
 I've  tried as hard as I could,  to make you see
 How important it is for me
 Here  is a plea, from my heart  to you, nobody  knows me
 As  well as you do, you  know how hard it is for me
 To  shake the disease, that takes hold  of my tongue
 In  situations like these
   Understand  me  Understand  me
   Understand  me  Understand  me

 (Other verses/choruses as above)
 Some people have to be
 Permanently together
 Lovers devoted to
 Each other forever
 Now I've got things to do
 And I've said before that I know you have too
 When I'm not there
 In spirit I'll be there
 Here is a plea
 >From my heart to you
 Nobody knows me
 As well as you do
 You know how hard it is for me
 To shake the disease
 That takes hold of my tongue
 In situations like these.
