What Is Love
The No Lyrics

She looked at me
I made eye contact with her

And the emptiness in her eyes was cruel to see
The sadness in her eyes was heartbreaking to witness

Then she turned away and said, 'Once I loved, but love is dead'
She spoke while turning her back and expressed her belief that love is gone from her life

And I whispered, 'Sometimes love is only sleeping'
I spoke softly and suggested that love may only be temporarily absent

She said, 'I cannot cry
She confessed that she is not able to cry

And I cannot give or feel or even try'
She believes that she cannot reciprocate love, emotions, or effort

And her voice was hard and cold
Her tone was harsh and devoid of warmth

Then her sweet young face looked old
Her youthful appearance transformed into one of distress and fatigue

Through the endless days and nights/Could not help but wrap herself in sorrow (sorrow)/Through the endless days and nights/She waited for a shiny new tomorrow/Love was sleeping, sleeping
She spent an extended period feeling melancholic without respite, but she held onto hope that a brighter future awaited; love was absent but not gone forever

And her smiling tears were warm and sweet and free/And the moonlight kissed her eyes/As it mingled with our sighs/And she whispered, 'Sometimes love is only sleeping'/And she whispered, 'Sometimes love is only sleeping'/Only sleeping
Her tears were joyful and freely flowing, and the moonlight illuminated her face as we both sighed; she reiterated our earlier sentiment that love can be awakened from dormancy
