What do you know about love?
Starts with a smile,
moves oceans,
lasts for awhile.
She turns a corner
and you lose your mind
And you think 'how unkind, how unkind'.
What do you know about love?
What's written in your book?
The smallest distraction
and you have to look.
She's in your water,
and you're in your head
somewhere else.
What do you know about love?
Except that you kill it
the deeper you cut it
and the more it will spill.
You flood her with water
when she shows her flame
and you expect her to get up
and feel the same?
What do you know about love?
Starts with a smile,
moves over mountains,
falls like a child,
cries like a baby
at the sight of its blood.
But if only we understood
What do you know about love?
What do you know about love?
What's written in your book?
When she adores you
it's you that gets stuck.
It's not the attraction
and the beauty is no blame,
it's the dealing with your shame.
What do you know about love?
Except that you kill
and you beg for forgiveness?
For the freeness of your will
you've broken the alter
where her body is lain.
And you question
wherefore comes this pain?
What do you know about love
except that you don't?
The heavens have opened,
and you say they won't.
So you rip out your heart
and you put it to freeze.
And she seems happier without me.
So what do you know about love?
