You Don’t Know What Love Is Songtext
von Kurt Elling

You don′t know what love is
Until you've learned the meaning of the blues
Until you′ve loved and love you've had to lose
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
How can you know what love is?


Do you know how a lost heart feels?
The thought of reminiscing
How lips that taste a tears
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
How can you know?

Do you know how the lost heart feels?
The thought of reminiscing
And how lips that taste a tears
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
How can you know?

How can you know?
How can you know, my friend
What love is?
How can you know what love is, love is?
What love is
What love is, yeah...
