Understanding

from Acoustic Songs by nicholas gurney

/

lyrics

understanding, that’s what I want
a little understanding, that’s what I need
understanding is that too much to ask
understanding, won’t you take heed

treat me with compassion, that’s what I want
to be treated with compassion, that’s what I need
treat me with compassion, is that too much to ask
treat me with compassion, won’t you take heed

ask me where we come from but I don’t know
ask me where we’re headed and the same thing goes
the guilty try so hard how we all want to win
as if winning was the answer to everything

a large sum of money, that’s what I want
a large sum of money, that’s what I need
a large sum of money is that too much to ask
a large sum of money, won’t you take heed

all i’ve ever dreamed of, that’s what i want
all i’ve ever dreamed of, that’s what i need
all i’ve ever dreamed of is that too much to ask
all i’ve ever dreamed of, won’t you take heed

ask me where we come from but I don’t know
ask me where we’re headed and the same thing goes
the guilty try so hard how we all want to win
as if winning was the answer to everything

round and round we go, up and down we go
round in circles kind of makes our heads spin
round and round we go, up and down we go
round in circles, till somebody wins
round and round we go, up and down we go
round in circles as if to punish our sins

the whole world to love me, that’s what I want
the whole world to love me, that’s what I need
the whole world to love me, is that too much to ask
the whole world to love me, won’t you take heed

ask me where we come from but I don’t know
ask me where we’re headed and the same thing goes
the guilty try so hard how we all want to win
as if winning was the answer to everything

round and round we go, up and down we go
round in circles kind of makes our heads spin
round and round we go, up and down we go
round in circles, till somebody wins
round and round we go, up and down we go
round in circles as if to punish our sins
