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?)
