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
(I put on my bravest face)
And my hopes so out of place
(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
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
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
End
