I see couples walking strollers And the barrel rolling surfers on the waves Back packers home from hikes Swedish girls upon push bikes out on the bay Twenty million grains of sand Its by far the promised land And I'll always be a fan Still I had to board a plane in seven days It should not be bittersweet When the scene out on the street is so alluring But as a music man by trade Its not hard to be persuaded into touring Will I find my lost boys club And outgrown my road house grub But for all the ticket stubs Still I can not overcome the way I'm feeling
I will never understand my love When understanding love is impossible All I know is love is what we've got And what we've got I'll never throw away I will never understand my love No I won't
And then the situation with the girl who's in my life My gorgeous lover I admitted I was leaving So my ma's begun her grieving undercover I put on my bravest face And my hopes so out of place Before we wrestle with the distance Just the phone bill and persistence as our buffer Mmmm
I will never understand my love Cause understanding love is impossible All I know is love is what we've got And what we've got I'll never throw away But I will never understand my love No I won't
I remember when mum said If I can't afford a bed Then theres the spare room But she would not leave a key Since apparently my father stole an heirloom Though the marriage break was fierce It's been over twenty years And she still won't dry her tears Since my parents chose to sleep in seperate bedrooms
So I will never understand my love When understanding love is impossible All I know is love is what we've got And what we've got I'll never throw away No I will never understand my love When understanding love is impossible All I know is love is what we've got And what we've got I'll never throw away But I will never understand My love I'll never understand
