[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
They call it understanding (-standing)
A willingness to grow
I'm finally understanding (-standing)
There's so much I can know

[Verse 2]
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

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

[Outro]
Understanding
(You've got me understanding)
Mmm yeah, understanding, understanding
You've got me understanding
For the first time
You've got me understanding (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
You've got me understanding
You've got me understanding

As a locally successful Detroit-area artist, he performed and recorded as Bob Seger and the Last Heard and Bob Seger System throughout the 1960s. By the early 1970s, he had dropped the “System” from his recordings and continued to strive for broader success with various other bands. In 1973, he put together the Silver Bullet Band, with a group of Detroit-area musicians, with whom he became most successful on the national level with the album Live Bullet, recorded live with the Silver Bullet Band in 1975 at Cobo Hall in Detroit, Michigan. On his studio albums, he also worked extensively with the Alabama-based Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section, which appeared on several of Seger’s best-selling singles and albums.

In 1976, he achieved a national breakout with the studio album Night Moves. The Night Moves title track became his first Billboard Top 5 single and the album started a string six consecutive albums landing in the Billbaord Top 10. The 1980 album, Against the Wind, topped the charts.
