Did you ever know how it is to be hurt
Did you ever feel, ever feel like dirt
Tell me did you give up all your pride?
Just to have her by your side
If you don't know, if you don't know what I'm talking about
You don't know nothing, you don't know nothing about love
And when the night time comes do your tears fall like rain
And when the morning comes do they start all over again?
Tell me did you get down, down on your knees and pray
That she'd never, that she'd never go away
If you don't know, if you don't know what I'm talking about,
Man, you don't know nothing about love
Oh, don't you try and tell me, don't try and tell me
That I'm out of my mind
For wherever that girl goes, I'll be standing right behind
Some day, some day my friend, man it's going to be your turn
She's gonna light your flame and it's going to burn
And when she turns and when she turns you inside out
And then and only then will you know what I'm talking about
If you don't know, if you don't know what I'm talking about,
Man, you don't know nothing about love
