Sometimes I Don’t Get You Yo La Tengo

Sometimes I don't get you
It's like an endless night
All I do is waste
And the look on your face like a knife
Am I fooling myself making believe
Together as one happily
Sometimes I don't get you
And I never lie

Sometimes I don't know you
It's like we never met
And what seems fine by me
Is your litany of regrets
Am I'm clinging to something that's passed
That was never intended to last
Sometimes I don't know you
Messes with my head

Sometimes I think I don't know
How to be on my own
Sometimes I won't answer the door
Or talk on the phone
With you by my side
I don't have to hide
The twig needs a trunk
So that it can continue to grow
