Understanding — Everything but the girl

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...
