Lyrics You Don't Know What Love Is - Lee Konitz, Warne Marsh

You Don't Know What Love Is

You don’t know what love is Until you’ve learned the meaning of the blues
Until you’ve lost a love, you had to lose
You don’t know what love is You don’t know how lips hurts
Until you’ve kissed and had to pay the cost
Until you’ve flipped your heart and you have lost
Oh, you don’t know what love is Do you know how a lost heart fears
The thought of reminiscing
And how lips that taste of tears
They lose their taste for kissing
You don’t know how hearts burn
For love that cannot live yet never dies
Until you’ve faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
Oh, you don’t know what love is Oh, you don’t know, you don’t know what love is Oh, you don’t know
Oh, you don’t know, I say you don’t know
