Help Me Understand Lyrics
Once in a lifetime you'll open up your heart
Baby once in a lifetime, you'll swear to never be apart.
You think your love's on solid ground
Then out of the blue it all comes tumbling down
Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell me
Somebody help me understand
And my picture in your locket
What will you do with it now
All our friends and all our memories
Tell me how to sort them out
What's yours is yours
What's mine is mine
Is that all that's left after all this time
Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell me
Somebody help me understand
Why I'm not part of your plan
And you don't need me anymore
Help me understand
Why I still wanna be where you are
Even though I know in my heart
That you don't love me anymore
Who's gonna hold me tonight
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell me
Somebody help me understand
Baby once in a lifetime, you'll swear to never be apart.
You think your love's on solid ground
Then out of the blue it all comes tumbling down
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell me
Somebody help me understand
What will you do with it now
All our friends and all our memories
Tell me how to sort them out
What's yours is yours
What's mine is mine
Is that all that's left after all this time
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell me
Somebody help me understand
And you don't need me anymore
Help me understand
Why I still wanna be where you are
Even though I know in my heart
That you don't love me anymore
When I'm feeling lonely
Who's gonna show me the light
Cause I need to know
With all the things we've got
How can love just stop
Tell me
Somebody help me understand

This song is so sweetly depressing, along with the video. It'd be a good song to cry to when you're apart from the one you love - for better or for worse.
this song is great .. in a bad way I mean. He's so right. How can you just give up on someone after so long?
