Lyrics:

Papa says it's a bitch to recognize it
Like catching rhythm from the pouring rain
Mama says it's a flicker in the eye of a lover
Why would mama lie?

It's so hard to explain
It's the light that keeps shinning
It's love

Don't you know what love is
Let me show you love, girl
Don't you know what love is
It could be so long
And I know that it could last forever

I feel the passion in you growing stronger
And girl, you should know by now
Here I am calling you from the still of the moment
To the heat of the night

It's a joy to explain
It's a light that keep shining in me for you
It's love

Don't you know what love is
Let me show you my love, girl
(Oh, don't you know what love is)
Don't you know what love is

I could be the one
(Papa says it's bitch to recognize it) Don't you know
(Mama says it's a flicker in the eye of a lover) Oh
This could be the one
Yes, it's got to be the one
(Why would mama lie?)
Don't you know what love is

Love (Don't you know what love is) girl
Let me show you my love, girl
(Don't you know what love is)
Oh, it can be so strong
(Don't you know what love is)
It's got to be the one
(Don't you know what love is)
I could be the one

Don't you know what love is
