From the recordings I'll Try To Understand and It's All About The Kids
Lyrics
I'll Try to Understand
Verse 1: Far across the waves - far across the miles
I know I will crave just one of your smiles.
I don't want to let you go...that was not the plan
But if you leave, I'll try to understand.
Verse 2: Once upon a time, there was only you and me
No one else could find space to come between
Now I can't bear to think of you in some distant land
But if you leave, I'll try to understand.
Bridge: Believe me...I know
Believe me...it's hard to let go.
Verse 3: Nothing up till now prepared me for this day
And I don't know how to let you walk away
But you know your happiness is my one demand
So if you leave, I'll try to understand.
