Michael McDonald - Searchin' For Understanding lyrics

(Darrell Brown And Michael McDonald)

So long ago that you can hardly remember

So far away but not so out of mind

And you're still waiting to be forgiven

Whose problem is it after all this time

Down deep inside, if I were in your shoes

I know in my heart, I'd never do that to you

It's time to decide, if I still wanna try

If love's gonna last, there's one thing I gotta find

I'm searchin' for understanding

I'm lookin' for understanding

I'm sorry that my feelings are still so tender

The things they make me do, and make me say

I know in time that all things get better

But 'til then this may be the price you have to pay

Down deep inside, if I were in your shoes

I know in my heart, I'd never do that to you

It's time to decide, what we're gonna do

If love's gonna last, there's something I need from you

So easily trust can be broken

Not so when a heart's got to mend

Your love was the one thing I believed in

Will it ever be the same again
