I Don't Know Much About Love

I don't know much about love

But I know my heart beats out your name

constantly in Morse code every single day.

I don't know much about love

But upon Googling my symptoms,

I found out that I'm either falling in love

Or going insane.

Or both.

I don't know much about love,

But my eyes take no pleasure

In seeing any image except your perfect figure

My ears take no joy in hearing

Any sound other than your heavenly voice

My nose yearns for no other scent

Than your perfume

My body is numb to any feeling

Other than your touch

And my mouth wants nothing more

Than the taste of your lips on my lips...

Even if you've never kissed me before.

I don't know much about love

But the sun won't rise

Until you say good morning.

And the moon won't shine

And the stars don't dare show their faces

Until you say good night.

And the birds don't sing, and the flowers don't grow,

And the world won't spin, and the winds won't blow

And my life has no meaning

Until you say hello.

And I might as well die

When you say good bye.

Heck, I don't know anything about love

But if you asked me what being in love felt like

I'd tell you it probably feels a little bit like this.
