I asked my mother what she knows about love She said, "Girl, not that much but I do know That my heart led me to make honest choices Who to go to, who to live with, with whom to share" I asked my father what he knows about love He said, "Ask your mum please, but I can say That my heart led me to make honest choices Where to go, who to live with, with whom to share" For I know all about riches, and I know more about bliss And I also feel the sting when once again it's hit and miss And I know all about joy, and maybe more about mourning But about love, about love I don't know a thing So when you asked me what I know about love I said, "Darling not that much but I do know That my heart will lead me to make honest choices Who to go to, who to live with, with whom to share For I know all about riches, and I know more about bliss And I also feel the sting when once again it's hit and miss And I know all about joy, maybe more about mourning But about love, about love I don't know a thing I only know, I only know Only when you're with me I only know, I only know Only when you're with me
