I Want To Know What Love Is Lyrics

I WANT TO KNOW WHAT LOVE IS
Lucky Dube

I' ve got to take a little time
A little time to think things over
I' d better read between the lines
In case I need it when I' m older

This big mountain I must climb
Ohh feels like the world upon my shoulders
Through the crowds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

In my life, there's been heartache and pain
I don' t know, if I can face it again
I can' t stop now
I' ve travelled so far
To change this lonely life

Chorus:
I want to know what love is
Reggae can show me
I want to feel what love is
Reggae can show me

I' m going to take a little time
A little time to look around me
I' ve got nowhere left to hide
It looks like reggae has finally found me
In my life, there's been heartache and pain
I don' t know, if I can face it again
Can' t stop now
I' ve travelled so far
To change this lonely life

Chorus:
I want to know what love is
Reggae can show me
I want to feel what love is
Reggae can show me

Till fade
