You Don't Know What Love Is Lyrics


You don't know what love is
Until you've learnt the meaning of the blues
Until you've loved the love you've had to lose
You don't know what love is
You don't know how lips hurt
Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost
Until you flipped your heart and you've lost
You don't know what love is
Do you know how a lost heart fears
The thought of reminiscing?
And our lips that taste of tears
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
You don't know what love is
You don't know how hearts burn
For love that cannot live yet never dies

Until you faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
You don't know, you'll never know what love is

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Vocalist Tony Bennett joined together with the well known jazz pianist Bill Evans (1929-1980) for two albums of sublime duets recorded for Fantasy in 1975 and 1976. According to Tony Bennett: “I said to Bill, ‘Listen, it will just be the two of us – you don’t bring your cronies and I won’t bring mine!’” Apparently, the only people in the studio were the two principals plus engineer Don Cody and Evans’s manager, Helen Keane.

While Ms. Keane was nominally credited as producer, it’s clear that it was Bennett and Evans who selected the tunes, worked out the arrangements semi-spontaneously, and picked the final takes to be used.

Venerated as gorgeous gems of jazz grace, the two LPs originally were issued as "The Tony Bennett/Bill Evans Album" & "Together Again," Now reissued as of April 14 2009, as a 2-CD set "The Complete Tony Bennett/Bill Evans Recordings". Tracks are available as digital downloads along with numerous alternate takes and bonus tracks from both sessions.
