Unfaithful
Watershed Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know I've been unfaithful
I know I've been ungreatful
I know you think it's over
But I know how I feel about you
So please, please hold me
Please, please be with me
And please, please hold me
Please, please dream of me

I know I've been unstable
I know I've been unapproachable
'cos I think you are unavoidable
And I hope you love unconditional

So please, please hold me
Please, please be with me
And please, please hold me
Please, please dream of me

But if you go

Please tell me so
I too can go away
