I Want To Know What Love Is

Paul Young

I gotta take a little time,

A little time to think things over

I better read between the lines,

In case I need it when I'm older



Now this mountain I must climb,

feels like the world upon my shoulders

Through the clouds I see love shine,

it keeps me warm as life grows colder



In my life there's been heartache and pain

I don't know if I can face it again

Can't stop now,

I've travelled so far,

to change this lonely life



I want to know what love is,

I want you to show me

I want to feel what love is,

I know you can show me



I'm gonna take a little time,

a little time to look around me

I've got nowhere left to hide,

it looks like love has finally found me



In my life there's been heartache and pain

I don't know if I can face it again

Can't stop now,

I've travelled so far,

to change this lonely life



I want to know what love is,

I want you to show me

I want to feel what love is,

I know you can show me



I want to know what love is,

I want you to show me

(And I wanna feel) I want to feel what love is

(And I know) I know you can show me



Let's talk about love - I want to know what love is

The love that you feel inside - I want you to show me

And I'm feeling so much love - I want to feel what love is

No, you just can't hide - I know you can show me



I want to know what love is (let's talk about love),

I know you can show me

I wanna feel it too - I want to feel what love is

I wanna feel it too, and I know and I know

I know you can show me

Show me love is real, yeah

I want to know what love is...
