Maybe I'll Understand - James Brown

I’m brokenhearted, it’s my fault

Treated my baby wrong, and I just got to talk

But help me, somebody, I’m a man

Help me, somebody, I believe she just don’t understand

I’m trying so hard, trying so hard

I’m trying to do the best I can, oh yes I am

When I, I lay down

I got my baby on my mind, oh yes I have

When I, when I lay down

I got my baby on my mind, oh yeah

I’ll think about the good things, and the good times

The way she make me feel so fine

Mmm, I said I’m sitting in the dark, oh now

And I don’t, I don’t need no light

Oh yes I am, oh yes I am, yes I…

I’m sitting alone in the dark

I want the world to know I don’t need no light

I need no light

'Cause I’m wondering, I’m wondering where she’s gone

And I’m wondering what, what she’s doing tonight

And all I can say, all I can say is

Help me, somebody, help me understand

Help me, somebody, I know that I’m not her man

'Cause I need her, to hold my hand

Then maybe, maybe I’ll understand
