You Don't Know What Love Is

Merriweather Daniel

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
