Understanding

You're here, but what if you weren't

What would have happened to me

That candle, unburnt, is history

One thing

I guess this place would be a mess

For my standards at best are undemanding

And that takes some understanding

Still here, but what if we weren't

Where'd you think

I would be (where would I be)

For love I have learned depends on geography

Fortune found us when all around us

Half the couples we knew were disbanding

And that needs your understanding

And do you know even when we disagree

And freedom holds out a hand to me

You know I would nver want to be without your company

And I mean that totally

We have reached an understanding...

Understanding, understanding...
