Understand - Shawn Mendes
Am I asking all these
questions for nothing
I'm wondering if anyone's there
yeah
And I really need to
make a confession
I hate to say that
I'm a little bit scared
yeah-eh-ehh
That I've been on this train too long
People getting off and on
I'm prayin' that I don't forget
where I belon-ong
And every time I ask myself
Am I turnin' into someone else
I'm prayin' that I don't forget
just who I am
I really wanna understand
I just wanna understand
I'm callin' all my friends
after midnight yeah
To remind 'em that I'll
always be there for them
It gets lonely when there's
no one to talk to
But it's good to know that
somebody care-ares
'cause I've been on
this train too long
People gettin' off and on
I'm prayin' that I don't forget
where I belon-ong
And every time I ask myself
Am I turnin' into someone else
I'm prayin' that I don't forget
just who I am
I really wanna understand
I just wanna understand yeah
Oh yeah-eh-ehh
'cause we all get lost sometimes
yeah-eh I know
Yeah we all get lost sometimes
We don't leave your heart
behind no yeah-eh
'cause we all get lost sometimes
I really wanna understand
I just gotta understand
yeah-ehh-ehhh
Now I just need to
I need to understand
I really wanna understand
ohh who I am

When you wake up
your whole world's flipped
It's just different and you gotta
you know you gotta
you gotta go with it
And that's just simply growing up
And not see it in a negative way
If they see it
as it has been given to you
I mean
as much at times can be crazy
You're gonna feel
like that's where
you're supposed to be
You're not going to feel
out of place anymore
You're going to feel like
that's where you meant to be
You don't have to pretend
that it's easy all the time
You just let it go and and grow with it
And you can't hold on to the old you
or the old this or the old that
Because you know you change
and it's not changing in a bad way
It's just changing because
that's what happens in life
You grow up everyone moves on
You're just learning
You stay true to yourself
Changing isn't a bad thing
it never was
But at the end of the day you know
You're the same person
And and where your heart is
That doesn't change
And every time I ask myself
Am I turning into someone else
And I just really got that
I'm still who I am
I really wanna understand
I just got to understand
yeah-eh-ehhhh-ehhh-ehhhhh
Now I just need to
I need to understand
I really wanna understand
ohh who I am
