Didn't Know Love lyrics

I thought I had it long ago

I held on but It let go

It kissed me on a subway train

And I meant it

It got my hand

It brushed my cheek

It moved right in, It got me deep

You know, it even had a name

I really felt it

I didn't know love

Not even close

this is more beautiful and frightening

that I've ever known

it's making me weak

making me strong

it's making me afraid I'm gonna wake up

and find it gone

I didn't know love

it's a blessing

it's a curse

You know you've found it when it hurts

It can drive you off a cliff

but it's worth it

careful way to spend the night

it's complicated when it's right

you can make me such a mess

yeah you're perfect

cause I didn't know love

chorus

I didn't know love

Not even close

this is more beautiful and frightening

that I've ever known

it's making me weak

making me strong

it's making me afraid I'm gonna wake up

and find YOU gone

no I didn't know love

now you're lying in my arms beside me

In the past I'd settle for a touch

I'd tell myself it was enough

I was lying, lying, lying

cause I didn't know love

I didn't know love

Not even close

this is more beautiful and frightening

that I've ever known

it's making me weak

making me strong

it's making me afraid I'm gonna wake up

and find YOU gone

I didn't know love
