I Want to Know What Love Is
by Mariah Carey
I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
I can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me, show me
(I wanna know what) I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me (and I feeling so much love)
AI want to feel what love is
I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is Let's talk about love
I want you to show me
