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

Oh, you don't know, I say you don't know
