Marianne Faithfull – Misunderstanding lyrics

[Verse 1]
Misunderstanding is my name
What I am is not a game
Such an easy trap to fall
For anyone
And then you find yourself alone
No explanation you can give
That you or I believe, understand
Such a shame, no way to live
But hard to get away from

[Chorus]
Misunderstanding
Misunderstanding

[Verse 2]
Only once to know the truth
Make things clear at least to some
Not everyone
That can never happen on its own
Help me other people understand
That I am not alone

[Chorus]
Misunderstanding
Misunderstanding

[Verse 3]
Misunderstanding, stay away
Stay far away from me
And from those I love
You only want to fuck me up
If you can, but I say "no"
Lovers need a lot of rest
To give their all, to give their best
Mistakes are worthless
Misunderstanding's worse
A game I will not play, a curse

[Chorus]
Misunderstanding
Misunderstanding
Misunderstanding
Misunderstanding

[Verse 4]
Love is real, love is here
The only thing I know for sure
Love last longer, have no fear
Only you have such allure
Only you have such allure

[Outro]
Only you have such allure
Only you have such allure
Only you have such allure
Only you have such allure
Only you have such allure
Only you have such allure
Only you have such allure
Only you have such allure
