Malvina Reynolds - I Don't Understand Lyrics

Of course I have someone to love me and I don't need you.
Then why am I standing here when I didn't mean to.
And why, all on its own, does my hand
Reach out to touch your face.
I don't understand.
I don't understand.

Of course I have someone to love me and I love him too.
Then why, wherever I am, am I looking for you.
And why does my heart jump up, without my command,
When my eyes find yours.
I don't understand.
I don't understand.

When you have gone, I know I'll be cured of this fever,
I have a love of my own and I love him forever.
Then why, when I think of you gone, does this iron band
Clutch at my heart, my heart.
I don't understand.
I don't understand.
