[Verse 1]
You say I’ve changed, I say you’re blind
We talk in circles, lose track of time
You reach for me, I push away
But I still need you every day
We're speaking two different tongues
You're holding on, I'm trying to run
But in your silence, I hear the past
And I wish I could bring us back
[Chorus]
You don’t understand and I can’t explain
Why love feels like thunder and rain
I know I hurt you when I walk away
But it kills me more when I stay
I’m not ungrateful, I’m just in pain
Caught in a war I can’t even name
You don’t understand and I can’t explain
But I love you just the same
[Verse 2]
You see a child, I feel the weight
Of trying to grow in a world that breaks
I wish that I could make you see
The battle going on in me
You gave your heart, I tend the scars
Holding dreams under shattered stars
Every laugh, every tear we made
Echoes softly, then starts to fade
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear the whispers through the pain?
Feel the lightning flash, dance in the rain?
I’m lost in shadows, searching for light
A glimmer of hope to make it right
[Chorus]
You don’t understand and I can’t explain
Why love feels like thunder and rain
I know I hurt you when I walk away
But it kills me more when I stay
I’m not ungrateful, I’m just in pain
Caught in a war I can’t even name
You don’t understand and I can’t explain
But I love you just the same
[Bridge]
So let me go and let me breathe
If loving you is meant to grieve
A hollow heart can't hold its ground
But I'll carry yours where love is found
[Outro]
You don’t understand, but when it's through
Know I’ll always keep a part of you
In the thunder, in the rain
In the love that’s born from pain
