The Red Sea

I do not understand the things you do

You know I'd give it all to only you

But every time I tried, you claim you're never satisfied

I do not understand the things we speak

You've turned a love once warm to something bleak

But you could break my heart and I'd still never want to part

'Cause I've been here the whole time

Waiting for your call

And I'd be there for you when you fall

So if you ever see the light of day

Just know when I say

That I don't understand how I loved you at all

So I'll set off onto my new pursuit

Of whereabouts to go and things to do

To distract me from the fact that

I will never let you go

So if you ever look back on how you treated me

Then hopefully you'll eventually see

That life goes on and on

And it doesn't last us long

So I'll just have to show you how you hurt me in a song

(You used to leave me as you'd want, as you'd please

You'd spit in my face while I'm down upon my knees

When all I'd ask of you

Is why you had to make love cruel?)
