Can you tell me what love is?
Can you tell me what love is?
Because I dont thinkI know
I climbed a mountain for it, jumped and I let go.
Can you tell me what love is?
Because I've yet to find
The reason why I swam, this sea and then you stayed behind
Can you tell me what love is?
Because the poets always say
Better to have loved and lost but why give it away?
Can you tell me what love is
and why does it have to change?
Or was it ever really there was I just feeling strange?
Can you tell me what love is
For I looked in halls of gold
I searched in streets of penniless rags but still it was not sold
Can you tell me what love is
For it is sung all round
yet every chord I try to strike its nowhere to be found
Can you tell me what love is
For your kisses do not say
They seem to brush me passing through and go some other way
Can you tell me what love is
Why do I feel alone
I look into my lovers eyes and something is not shown
Can you tell me what love is
For time is slipping by
and just a taste would be so good to have before I die
