"Understand" by Christina Aguilera Album: Back to Basics I made you think you don’t understand. I used to think that happiness could only be something that happened to somebody else. Everybody believed--everybody but me! And I’d been hurt so many times before that my hope was dyin’. So sick of tryin’.  Everybody could see--everybody but me! But then you came into my life. You opened up my softer side and now I can see into your eyes and suddenly I realize I made you think you don’t understand (All the times you didn’t understand why you just be my man) I made you think you don’t understand (There were many walls you had to climb if you wanted to be mine) I made you think you don’t understand (After all the hoops I put you through now I see I’m in love with you) Now I hope you finally understand. So many tears I had to cry but you had many more of your own you had to dry. but you stuck it out and you’re here with me now. And remembering the days I’d push away your love you’d call my bluff and you still stayed around. Yeah you figured me out said you’ve got me down. And there’s no way to lie to you--you know me better than I do. Baby ooh you see me through I’d be no good without you I made you think you don’t understand (All the times you didn’t understand why you just be my man) I made you think you don’t understand (There were many walls you had to climb if you wanted to be mine) I made you think you don’t understand (After all the hoops I put you through now I see I’m in love with you) Now I hope you finally understand. Baby won’t you listen now? Can’t you see just what I’m talking about? Baby won’t you listen now? Can’t you see just what I’m talking about? Time went on and I was wrong to keep my distance for so long. So afraid you wouldn’t stay but you never turned away. Always right by my side; you’re forever in my life. Don’t you go ’cause now I know that in you I found a home. Now I can see into your eyes and suddenly I realize I made you think you don’t understand (All the times you didn’t understand why you just be my man) I made you think you don’t understand (There were many walls you had to climb if you wanted to be mine) I made you think you don’t understand (After all the hoops I put you through now I see I’m in love with you) Now I hope you finally understand.
