It occured to me at once that love could be a great illusion,
that makes fools of brilliant thinkers everyday.
And sends hearts of stone and steel,
to a place where they would feel like they,
were falling, falling quickly in its way.
Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun,
When all this time you had no one to tell you how to love?
And do you think it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
When all this time you didn't know love, you didn't know love,
You didn't know love, You didn't know love
It occurred to me at once that love gets everything it asks for,
Like a young girl picking flowers in the lawn.
She gets every kiss and tear, she gets every smile and fear, but still,
She never finds the last of them is gone, oh
She never finds the last of them is gone
Chorus: 3x
Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun,
When all this time you had no one to tell you how to love?
And do you think it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
When all this time you didn't know love, you didn't know love,
You didn't know love, You didn't know love
