Yo La Tengo - Sometimes I Don't Get You lyrics

Sometimes I don't get you It's like an endless night All I do is a waste And the look on your face is like a knife Am I fooling myself making believe Together as one happily Sometimes I don't get you And I never lie Sometimes I don't know you It's like we never met And what seems fine by me Is your litany of regrets Am I'm clinging to something that's pa**ed That was never intended to last Sometimes I don't know you Messes with my head Sometimes I think I don't know How to be on my own Sometimes I won't answer the door Or talk on the phone With you by my side I don't have to hide The twig needs a trunk So that it can continue to grow The twig needs a trunk So that it can continue to grow Sometimes I don't get you It's like I'm lost at sea But then you say you're okay And I know that you'll stay with me Though it never comes soon enough We'll get through the difficult stuff No matter what we do I'll be there for you And maybe I'll get you And you'll get me
