I have been around
This old block before
Ive walked into
Abruptly closin doors
Schooled in hard knocks Ive learned a lot
About how a heart can break
I might not know what love is but I know what it aint
It aint layin in the dark and wonderin why she hasnt called
And now its two AM
It aint drivin by her house to find her wrapped up in the arms
Of your ex-best friend
It aint bold face lies or alibies that cannot be explained
I might not know what love is but I know what it aint
Yeah
You say you could show me how to love
Baby,theres one thing you can be sure of
I wouldnt treat you wrong cause Ive been on
The hurtin side of pain
I might not know what love is but I know what it aint
It aint showin up for dinner with a rose and Chardonnay
Then drinkin by yourself
It aint a postcard from Hawaii sayin we can still be friends
But I met someone else
It aint bold faced lies or alibis that cannot be explained
I might not know what love is but I know what it aint
It aint a mink coat, forty pairs of shoes
Two fourteen carat anklets on my Mastercard
It aint walkin in a pawn shop recognizing her engagement ring
She swore she lost
It aint bold face lies or alibis that cannot be explained
I might not know what love is, but I know what it aint
If you had all day I could tell you things
That would make a grown man faint
I might not know what love is but I know what it aint
Yeah, I know what it aint
Yes,I do
