Understanding

Chorus:

What I need from you is understanding,

How can we communicate,

If you don't hear what I say.

What I need from you is understanding,

So simple as 1-2-3,

Understanding is what we need.

Verse One (Tiny):

You don't really know me,

You just wanna do what you wanna do.

That's not the way it should be,

No, you should listen to me boy.

I try so very hard to make you understand,

But the choices you make, baby they're all demands.

Break:

(Kandi):

I try so very hard to keep our love alive,

But you don't wanna meet me half way,

Then the understanding dies.

(Tamika):

There's no way that we can work it out,

If we don't pull together.

I don't mean to be demanding,

But I want some understanding,

I want to be with you.

Repeat Chorus

Verse Two (LaTocha):

I listen to you baby,

And I know the things you're going through.

I try to understand,

That's why I'm still here with you, baby.

See everyday we're living,

Is one thing that will always be unsure.

That's why I need you baby, pleading baby,

Please let our love endure.

Repeat Break & Chorus (x2)
