You Don't Know What Love Is
Unveiling the Depths of Love's Sorrow: Karrin Allyson's Poignant Ballad
Lyrics
You don't know, you don't know
You lack understanding
You don't know what love is
Ignorance about the true nature of love
You don't know what love is
Reiteration of the lack of knowledge about love
Until you've learned the meaning of the blues
True understanding of love comes with experiencing the blues (heartache)
Until you've lost a love, you had to lose
Realization of love's depth through the pain of losing it
You don't know what love is
Continued lack of awareness about the essence of love
You don't know how lips hurts
Unaware of the pain caused by kisses
Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost
Understanding the cost of love after experiencing it
Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost
Heartbreak and loss as part of the love experience
Oh, you don't know what love is
Reiteration of ignorance about the true nature of love
Do you know how a lost heart fears
A lost heart's fear of recalling past memories
The thought of reminiscing
The emotional pain associated with reminiscing
And how lips that taste of tears
Tasting tears diminishes the joy of kissing
They lose their taste for kissing
Loss affecting the desire for affection
You don't know how hearts burn
Unaware of the intensity of burning hearts for a love that persists in memory
For love that cannot live yet never dies
Love that remains alive in the heart despite being unattainable
Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
Facing each morning with sleepless eyes due to love's impact
Oh, you don't know what love is
Reiteration of lack of knowledge about love
Oh, you don't know, you don't know what love is
Restating the ignorance about love
Oh, you don't know
Continued lack of understanding emphasized
Do you know how a lost heart fears
Repetition of the fear of a lost heart and reminiscing
The thought of reminiscing
Recalling past memories is daunting for a heart that has experienced loss
And how lips that taste of tears
Tasting tears makes kissing less appealing
They lose their taste for kissing
Loss affecting the pleasure of physical affection
You don't know how hearts burn
Continued lack of awareness about the depth of love's impact
For love that cannot live yet never dies
Love that persists in the heart despite its inability to thrive
Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
The toll of love evident in sleepless nights
Oh no, you don't know what love is
Emphasizing the lack of knowledge about love
You don't know what love is
Repetition of the idea that understanding love is elusive
You don't know, you don't know what love is
Continued lack of understanding about the true nature of love
Oh, you don't know, oh you don't know
Emphasizing the lack of knowledge
You don't know, you don't know what love is
Repetition of the idea that understanding love is elusive
Oh, you don't know, you don't know
Further emphasis on the lack of awareness about love
Oh, you don't know, I say you don't know
Final affirmation of the ignorance regarding the essence of love
