Misunderstood

I'm not exactly sure if these lryics are correct O.o ... But anyways it's such a great song. I can't really express any particular meaning I understand in it, but I feel it very close to me... I'd love to hear you all say anything about it.

I say its ok .and your right about the lyrics rumi.

whoaaaa.....someone stuffed up these lyrics hey here are the correct lyrics....

Trying to be misunderstood But it doesn´t do me any good Love the way they smiled at me Held their face for eternity Now let them all fly off

When it comes down It all comes down And you will not be found

When it´s over It´s all over Even if I make a sound

I´ll be misunderstood By the beautiful and good In this city

None of it was planned Take me by the hand Just don´t try and understand

Trying to be misunderstood Just a product of my childhood And still I find myself outside You can´t say I haven´t tried Perhaps I tried too hard

No excuses I won´t apologise Or justify your lies

Come and find me Tell them to me Look me in the eyes

I´ll be misunderstood By the beautiful and good In this city

None of this was planned Take me by the hand Just don´t try and understand

Can´t forgive – sorry to say You don´t know you´re guilty anyway Isn´t it funny how we don´t speak The language of love

first time i heard this song i thought it was by U2.

in my opinion this is his best song. atleast its my favourite. the other ones i can't stand especially the radio friendly popular stuff.

the knockout lines

"cause when it comes down it all comes down... and you will not be found."

"i can't forgive sorry to say... you don't know youre guilty anyway."

i love this song 2. i agree its one his best..n my fave. i duno tho its hard 2 know what its about. ive got in my head that it might be comething 2 do with his kids? or someones children neway. and his experience as a child, im not sure, or maybe a childhood sweetheart? i dont know lol, it hard 2 work out. but ill keep trying. love the song tho.

has anybody the dialog text from the music video to this song? the thing is that i'd like to know what exactly says robbie about her slips!!

Thanks Leishy for the right lyrics .... I've asked for the meaning of the song on some site , and A friend called whitney has answered me this : "" i believe he is talking to a specific person and trying to explain himself where no one else understands him, he wants this person to. by "trying to be misunderstood" i think he means he already knows he's going to be so why not succumb to it. face for eternity is they always think the same thing and can't fathom anything else. the next little paragraph i think hes kind of expecting bad to come from even trying. next part, i think he's saying like cops or ppl who are supposed to be considered "good" don't believe that he didn't mean any harm and he's asking the person who he feels mostly or at least somewhat understood by or trusts to believe him instead of them. "i won't apologize or justify your lies" is he knows he's telling the truth, whether or not anyone believes him at all. i think the you don't know you are guilty anyway is they don't really know they are wrong or are misunderstanding him or believe him but they don't necessarily mean harm by it, but it still hurts. idk, just my personal opinion on this matter.."""

thx

I love this song! I have been a massive Robbie fan since the 90's Take That days and this would be in my Top 3 Robbie songs, and I loved that they used it in Bridget Jones 2 as well.

I love the lyrics especially:

"No excuses, I won't apologize, or justify your lies, come to me, tell it to me, look me in the eyes" I think that would be someone who doesn't understand who he fully is as an entertainer and a real person away from the limelight as well.
