(Music by Jon Secada, Scott Shapiro, Tom McWilliams. Lyrics by
Jon Secada & JoPat Cafaro)

I've been living life without a reason
I've been living love without the time
You've lost touch with what I'm feeling
I got way too tired to read between the lines.

I've been misunderstood
I've been mistreated
Somehow I knew you would not
Take back what you said
I've been misunderstood but
Your wish in granted
By daylight I'll be gone
By daylight I'll be gone.

Are you asking me if there's a reason
To continue what I thought was doing fine
So so fine
Contentment lacks mutual pleasing
Is much different than both being satisfied.

I've been misunderstood
I've been mistreated
Somehow I knew you would not
Take back what you said
I've been misunderstood but
Your wish in granted
By daylight I'll be gone
By daylight I'll be gone.

Never thought I would consider
Loving someone new
Cause in my plans for happiness
I only thought of you.

I've been misunderstood
I've been mistreated
Somehow I knew you would not
Take back what you said
I've been misunderstood but
Your wish in granted
By daylight I'll be gone
By daylight I'll be gone.
