Eg White - Didn't Know Love lyrics

[Intro] I thought I had it long ago I held on, but it let go It kissed me on a subway train And I melted [Verse 1] It got my hand it brushed my cheek It moved right in, it cuts me deep You know it even had a name I really felt it [Chorus] I didn't know love Not even close This is more beautiful and frightening than I've ever known It's making me weak Making me strong It's making me afraid I'm going to wake up And find it gone I didn't know love [Verse 2] It's a blessing, it's a curse You know you've found it when it hurts It can drive you off a cliff But it's worth it Careful where you spend the night It's complicated when it's right You can make me such a mess Yeah you're perfect! [Chorus] [Verse 3] Now you're lying in my arms, beside me In the past I'd settled for a touch I'd tell myself it was enough I was lying, lying, lying Because I didn't know love Mmm [Chorus] [Outro] I didn't know love[x4]
