"Understanding" lyrics

"Understanding"
(from the film "Teachers")

It seems like only yesterday
I didn't have a clue
I stood alone not knowin' where to turn
Now suddenly, I look around
And everything looks new
I don't know why, but I think I'm startin' to learn
Mm-hmm

They call it understanding
A willingness to grow
I'm finally understanding
There's so much I can know

Until the day you came along
I used to just get lost
I only heard the things I wanted to hear
It always seemed like no one cared
But then you took the time
And now I look and everything seems clear
Mm-hmm

You've got me understanding
You've really helped me see
I'm finally understanding
It's meant so much to me
You've got me understanding
You've given me some pride
I'm finally understanding
You're really on my side
You're really on my side (Yeah, yeah, ooh)

Got me understanding
Understanding
(You've got me understanding)
Mm, yeah
Understanding, understanding
You've got me understanding
Ah, for the first time
You've got me understanding (Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah)
You've got me understanding
You've got me understanding
