Lyrics
Who knows what love is?
Who knows who made it up?
Who knows what it's made of?
Who knows what love is?
Philosophers have studied ancient scrolls to find the meaning
of the word that stands before us now, that leads us to our feeling
and I am not a pilgrim who somehow stood where I now stand
I'm no more than mortal woman,
You're no more than mortal man.
Chorus:
And I wonder who knows what love is?
Who knows who made it up?
Who knows what it's made of?
Who knows what love is?
We've become complacent in this romantic relationship.
At times it seems no more to me than a sinking ship,
But fifty years from now you might look at me and smile,
And say we've weathered every storm
And it was worth the extra mile...
And maybe then we'll know...
(Chorus)
Let's not try to make it more complicated than this,
There's more than sufficient evidence of marital bliss
And once you've seen the power, you can't doubt that it exists,
But who knows what love is?
(Chorus)
