You Don't Understand (unreleased) Lyrics - Deacon Blue

Here's a cry for every lie you tried but didn't know I saw 

And a sigh for every poor man,and woman and child that you ignore 

Here's some wounded sailors from fighting your war overseas 

Good God almighty Its pulling me down on my knees 

But if you don't know where you hurt 

Where you wound and you bite and you burn 

Then you don't understand 

Now I'm the man who crumbled five years into your plan 

And I'm dreaming of days when my hands and face were oily and blackened 

Finnieston's howling ghost ships are all I can see 

But now I shiver and shift and I'm worried 

So I drift -'cause I know that I'm beaten 

But if you think we don't know that you know 

Each time we tumble under your blows 

Then you don't understand 

Its goodbye tonight ,I'm catching the ten o'clock train 

Its leaving central station and pulling out of this wind and this terminal rain 

So its bye bye, Glasgow 

Bye bye baby goodbye 

Ooh be lah , we na na 

There's only so long you can try
