You don't know what love is Until you've learned the meaning of the blues Until you've loved a love, you had to lose No, You don't know what love is
You don't know how lips hurt Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost No, you don't know what love is
Do you know how a lost heart fears The thought of reminiscing And how lips that taste of tears They lose their taste for kissing
You don't know how hearts burn For love that cannot live yet never dies Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes No, you don't know what love is
Oh, you don't know, you don't know what love is Oh, you don't know
