[Chorus]
I don't know
I don't know how it feels to be you
Though I try my best to understand what you're going through
I don't know how it feels to be you

[Verse 1]
Though I try to learn your steps
I don't know what makes you dance
I don't know what turns your gray skies back to blue
Though I try to see your side
And swallow all my pride
There is no way I can take a step in your shoes

[Chorus]
'Cause I don't know
I don't know how it feels to be you
Though I try my best to understand what you're going through
I don't know how it feels to be you

[Verse 2]
So lay your cheeks upon my chest
Tell me everything that haunts your mind
I may not have all of the answers
But if you let me I can at least try
(Let me try, baby) Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
And when I'm sure I've had enough
The angels tell me just to wait awhile, woo-hoo, ooh, ooh
And baby, I am sorry
For being so hard on you sometimes, oh yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
But I don't know
I don't know how it feels to be you
Though I try my best to understand what you're going through
I don't know how it feels to be you, oh yeah yeah

[Bridge]
(Da-da-da-da) Oh, (Da-da-da-da) C'mon, baby, yeah
You know that I love you (Da-da-da-da)
You know that I try, baby (Da-da-da-da)
You know that I need you all my life, baby
I don't know
I still don't know how it feels to be you, oh, ho

[Verse 3]
And every day I ask myself
Are we really on the very same page? Whoa, hoo, hoo
And every day I wonder
Is there something that I'm supposed to say?
I wonder, baby
'Cause you and I are so in time
Maybe I'm just picking the wrong lines
'Cause I feel it in my heart
You know I adore you
But sometimes you can't even look me in the eye
Why? Why? Tell me why

[Chorus]
I don't know
I don't know how it feels to be you
Though I try my best to understand what you're going through
I don't know how it feels to be you, oh yeah, baby

[Outro]
(Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da) Ooh baby
C'mon, baby, c'mon
You know that I love you (Da-da-da-da)
You know that I try, baby (Da-da-da-da)
You know that I need you all my life, baby
I can't walk in your shoes (Da-da-da-da)
I can't sing your blues (Da-da-da-da)
You know I can't read your mind
I can't see life through your beautiful eyes
But you know that I love you (Da-da-da-da)
You know that I try, try, try (Da-da-da-da)
You know that I need you
Tell me why, baby
'Cause I don't know (I don't know)
I still don't know (But I'm trying, baby)
I don't know (I don't know)
I still don't know how it feels to be you (I don't know)
