Lyrics Daniel Merriweather

Daniel Merriweather

You Don't Know What Love Is

Just as a child at ten might act

If you never criticize

No, you don't know what love is

When pushed and pulled and pressured

You just do as you're told

And I hate to sound cold

You just do as you're told

But you don't know what love is

Until you say you deserve better

I can see your man can't help but win

You do as you're told

But it's for someone else's benefit

All those empty I love you's

But you're far too old

You're not hopeless or helpless

No, you don't know what love is

And I hate to sound cold

But you're far too old

Until I realize that you've realized

You just keep on repeating

I'm gonna lay right into you

Not for what you wanna do

You've got a respectable side

You're not hopeless or helpless

You seldom run and hide

Yeah, you don't know what love is

Yeah, you do as you're told, yeah

I'm gonna say these words to you

But in his mind there can be no sin

You just do as you're told

Just as a child at ten might act

In some respects I suspect

But you don't know what love is

Any problems that may arise

Yeah, you don't know what love is
