Elliott Smith I Didn't Understand song lyrics

Thought you'd be looking for the next in line to love

Then ignore, put out and put away.

And so you'd soon be leaving me

Alone like I'm supposed to be

Tonight, tomorrow and everyday.

There's nothing here that you'll miss.

I can guarantee you this

Is a cloud of smoke

Trying to occupy space.

What a fucking joke.

What a fucking joke.

I waited for a bus to separate the both of us

And take me off far away from you.

'Cause my feelings never change a bit,

I always feel like shit

I don't know why I guess that I just do.

You once talked to me about love,

And you painted pictures of

A never-neverland.

And I could've gone to that place,

But I didn't understand.

I didn't understand.

I didn't understand.
