Lyrics

I Know What Love Is
Drew James © 2003
 
When you told me you love me
You took me by surprise
Now I doubt the intentions
That lie behind your innocent eyes
 
There once was another
Who used those same words
Then I watched it all shatter
She left me there with nothin’ but hurt
 
I thought when I met you
All that had changed
But now I’ve discovered
It’s all just the same
 
I know what love is
It’s a lock with no key
A promise that’s broken
A lie you try to believe
 
I know what love is
It’s the verse of a poem
That once it’s recited
Leaves you sad and alone
 
I know what love is
I know what love is
 
When you told me you love me
Who’d you think you could fool
Cause words ain’t just words
When someone believes that they might be true
 
But I ain’t that someone
I’ve been through this before
If I told you I love you
You’d laugh and walk out that door
 
PC
