You Don't Know What Love Is
You Don't Know What Love Is
You don't know what pain is
Till your heart's been sliced in two
You don't know what tears are
Till it's turned your brown eyes blue
You don't know how rain stings
Till it's rained inside your heart
You don't know how wholeness feels
Till your soul's been ripped apart.
You don't know, will never know
How my love cries out to you
You, who left me easily
And never loved me true.
You don't know the sunshine
For you never liked the day
You only liked the midnight
When your love came out to play
Look at me. Look at me, boy!
See the heartbreak in my eyes
See the longings I still have for you
Though you only gave me lies
If I could hear just one sweet word
It would mend my heart, I think
But our love was like the Titanic
Doomed, destined to sink
You look at me and wink your eye
Like it's all a silly game
You say you miss me and mentally thumb
Your little book for my number and name
"Oh, sweet girl!" you say and give me a whirl
In the rain on the street by the tree
Where our lips first touched and I loved you so much
When you carved that big heart there for me
And I think of the day when like school children at play
We yelled "She's my love and I am just his!"!
But to a scoundrel you turned and my heart crashed and burned
Realizing that you don't.... know what love is.
