I went to the doctor to open up my heart Got my symptoms all mixed up He didn't know where to start Ain't no doctor in this world That can keep a broken heart from falling apart
'Cause they don't know Oh, they don't know
I went to my mother to show me how to cry She said "Baby let me shed your tears, I'll make the sacrifice" But ain't no crying in this world's gonna take the place of mine
'Cause they don't know They don't know
Some questions have answers And others just lead you on Some answers don't answer enough But I know The answer is love
But they don't know Oh, they don't know
I went to my brother to help me understand Asked him why they're walking by Don't seem to give a damn Don't they see the love they pair's walking by empty-handed
'Cause they don't know They don't know
I went to my father to get some prayer for me He said I hold my head up high 'cause there's something there for me Crying but I'm smiling through 'cause suddenly I see
What they don't know They don't know that
Sometimes,
Some questions have answers And others just lead you on Some answers don't answer enough But I know The answer is love
