I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND

by Justine Nigro   Aug 2, 2006


****I wrote this one about my friend John. He was my first love and tho I'm with someone else who I love more than anything in this world, I still love him to this day. He tells me he loves me but then acts like he doesnt, he confuses the heck outta me lol****

Chorus:
I just don't understand why he has to go
If he loves me then why'd he let me go
He said he wants me that I'm the only thing he needs
but if he loves me then why'd he have to leave

verse 1:
ever since junior high we have been love
he always bought me roses and gave me big bear hugs
then we broke up but vowed to stay friends
but it'd be a long time before I'd see him again
he up and vanished gone without a trace
and how i missed every day seeing his face
he went to Georgia cause his momma made him go
she didn't let him say goodbye so i didn't even know

chorus:
I just don't understand why he has to go
If he loves me then why'd he let me go
He said he wants me that I'm the only thing he needs
but if he loves me then why'd he have to leave

verse 2:
he called me one Day to say he was coming home
i couldn't wait to see him smell the scent of his cologne
he was here for 6 months we were together again
again we broke up but we stayed best friends
then he said he was leaving for Florida his mom was moving there
I cried in his arms all night and said it wasn't fair
he said he'd call me and gave me a kiss goodbye
i cried for days cause i didn't understand why

chorus:
I just don't understand why he has to go
If he loves me then why'd he let me go
He said he wants me that I'm the only thing he needs
but if he loves me then why'd he have to leave

verse 3:
he joined the air force and he called to tell me one day
he was leaving the morning after his graduation day
he knew i had a boyfriend but he asked me to marry him anyway
i just cried because i didn't know what to say
i told him that i love him and I'll always be here
he said not to cry i have nothing to fear
i kept crying because i didn't understand
why's he leaving if he wants to be my man

chorus:
I just don't understand why he has to go
If he loves me then why'd he let me go
He said he wants me that I'm the only thing he needs
but if he loves me then why'd he have to leave
