Lyrics: Janie Frickie. You Don't Know Love.

You don't know the meanin' of uncontrolled desire
You were always hangin' just above the fire
Now and then you come close enough to just stay warm
And you think that you win 'cause you never give in
Because you've never been burned, oh, but you're gonna learn

That you don't know love
'Til it's chilled you to the bone
Turned you inside out
And left you all alone

And you don't know love
'Til you've watched it die and then
You have to try again
You don't know love

Like a child, you wander out into the storm
You defy the thunder but the lightnin' keeps you warm
The innocence you've shown is somethin' I would like to know
And I'm feelin' that I'm finally crossin' the line
But I won't be alone, guess, I've known all along

That you don't know love
'Til it's chilled you to the bone
Turned you inside out
Left you all alone

And you don't know love
'Til you've watched it die and then
You have to try again
You don't know love

You don't know love
'Til it's chilled you to the bone
Turned you inside out
And left you all alone

And you don't know love
'Til you've watched it die and then
You have to try again
You don't know love
No, you don't know love
