I'll Understand

So many haunting memories That never let you sleep You're begging please don't stay with me But still they never, ever leave And if I never see you smile again I'll understand And if I never see you cry again I'll understand I'll understand You saw the crucifix at school And it made sense to you Innocent, you saw him fall And so you built a giant wall And if I never see you smile again I'll understand And if I never see you cry again I'll understand I'll understand All the pain you deny Never strays from your eyes Leaving me a little sad Leaving us a passing fad And if I never see you smile again I'll understand And if I never see you cry again I'll understand I'll understand
