YES, I UNDERSTAND
(C Beam / Charles Jiles / W Stevenson)

as recorded by Patsy Cline
1958


Yes, I understand that I'm to set you free,
Yes, I understand you love her more than me!
I understand she won your heart,
Stoled your love, drew us apart,
I understand (I understand)
And so I'll let you go! (let you go)

I tried my best to do the things
I thought would please you, dear.
I never dreamed the time would come
When you would not be here!

Yes, I understand what I'm supposed to do,
Find me someone else to take the place of you!
And if I live a hundred years,
I'll find some way to hide these tears.
I understand (I understand)
And so I'll let you go!

(I tried my best to do the things
I thought would please you, dear.)
I never dreamed the time would come
When you would not be here!

Yes, I understand what I'm supposed to do,
Find me someone else to take the place of you!
And if I live a hundred years,
I'll find some way to hide these tears.
I understand (I understand)
And so I'll let you go! (let you go)
