I Want To Know What Love Is
Tina Arena Lyrics

Gotta take a little time
It's important to slow down and think things over

A little time to think things over
Reflect on one's life experiences and feelings

Better read between the lines
Understand the deeper meaning behind what others say or do

In case I need it when I'm older
Store the knowledge gained for future use

This mountain I must climb
Life's challenges, like a physical mountain, can be difficult and overwhelming

Is like the world upon my shoulders
Feels like an enormous burden to bear

Through the clouds I see love shine
Despite hardships, the warmth of love shines through

It keeps me warm as life grows colder
Love provides comfort in difficult times

In my life
Referencing one's past experiences

There's been heartache and pain
Life has been difficult and full of suffering

I don't know if I can face it again
Feeling uncertain about the ability to keep going forward

Can't stop now
There's no giving up, keep moving forward

I've traveled so far
Already come a long way and accomplished much

To change this lonely life
Desiring a life with more love and companionship

I want to know what love is
Looking for a deeper understanding of romantic love

I want you to show me
Seeking guidance in matters of the heart

I want to feel what love is
Craving the emotional experience of being in love

I know you can show me
Believing that someone has the ability to help them understand love

Gonna take a little time
Again, emphasizing the importance of patience and reflection

A little time to look around me
Being more mindful of one's surroundings and the people in it

Got nowhere left to hide
Feeling exposed and vulnerable, with no more emotional barriers to shield oneself

Looks like love has finally found me
Feeling excited and grateful for the arrival of love

Lord help me to be strong
Asking for divine guidance and strength

On this road I travel on
Referring to the journey of life

When I'm lost and lonely
During times of confusion or despair

Find me
Asking for help and support

My journey's just begun
Acknowledging that life is a continuous journey of self-discovery

And I'm not the only one
Feeling a sense of connection with others on similar paths

Yes I've found out
Having gained new insights about love

You can't hide
Nobody can deny or suppress the power of love

Tell me what love is
Seeking advice or guidance on what love truly means

Do you know what it is
Asking the question to others

Show me what love is
Desiring a demonstration or experience of love

Yeah, Nah yeah
An expression of excitement or agreement
