You Don't Know What Love Is Lyrics

In some respects I suspect
You've got a respectable side
When pushed and pulled and pressured
You seldom run and hideBut it's for someone elses benefit
Not for what you wanna do
Until I realize that you've realized
I'm gonna say these words to youYeah, you don't know what love is
You do as you're told
Just as a child at ten might act
But you're far too oldYou're not hopeless or helpless
And I hate to sound cold
But you don't know what love is
You just do as you're toldI can see your man cant help but win
Any problems that may arise
But in his mind there can be no sin
If you never criticizeYou just keep on repeating
All those empty I love you's
Until you say you deserve better

I'm gonna lay right into youYeah, you don't know what love is
You just do as you're told
Just as a child at ten might act
But you're far too oldYoure not hopeless or helpless
And I hate to sound cold
But you don't know what love is
No, you don't know what love is
No, you don't know what love isYou just do as you're told
Yeah, you do as you're told, yeah
