i know what love is
i know what love is
i wont forget
ive only fallen in love
not temptation
i had to lose it
to learn its worth
i had to break my own heart
to love myself
now i know it
i dont wanna let it go
theres nothing else but this
in the whole world
that could be as valuable
i know what love is
in Arizona
i phoned a girl named Oracle
she read my future and said
it was good
in the American south
we shoplifted to fill our mouths
i learned what love is
from going down
now i know it
i want everyone to know
dont wait around for it
youre the fountain
thatll always overflow
you know what love is
we know what love is now
who knew,
that to find out what we have always known
would take so long
at a motel in Reno
i couldve smoked crack but i said no
did that in Texas instead
drugs aint no joke
once on the west coast
i met a hobo, actually several
they knew the truth about life
more than CEOs
now i know it
im disposed to let it grow
theres nothing else to do
as important
or as beautiful
as truly loving you
now i know,
its like a tunnel vision
theres nothing else but this
in the whole world
that could psych me out
now i know what love is
i know what love is
