(Verse 1)
In this tangled world, full of mystery,
We search for answers, in the depths we see.
But there's one question that echoes through time,
What is love? Baby, don't hurt me, cryin'.
(Pre-Chorus)
In your eyes, I see a flicker of pain,
Secrets and scars, a love not in vain.
But can you show me, a love that's true,
Define the meaning, and paint it in hues?
(Chorus)
What is love? Baby, don't hurt me,
Tell me it's more than just a blind plea.
Is it laughter and joy, or agony's sting?
What is love? Baby, let your heart sing.
(Verse 2)
Is it a gentle touch or a passionate fire?
A lifeline of hope or a dream to aspire?
Is love tender care or raw desire's flame?
Tell me, baby, can our souls be the same?
(Bridge)
Love's a river, flowing wild and free,
But it can crash and burn, causing agony.
So, show me something deeper, something pure,
Let your love heal and endure.
(Chorus)
What is love? Baby, don't hurt me,
Tell me it's more than just a blind plea.
Is it laughter and joy, or agony's sting?
What is love? Baby, let your heart sing.
(Verse 3)
Can love bloom in darkness? Can it bloom in light?
Can it withstand trials and survive the fight?
Guide me through the shadows, help me understand,
Is love a fleeting moment or a forever's hand?
(Pre-Chorus)
In your touch, I feel a glimmer of grace,
A love that transcends time and space.
So, don't hurt me, baby, let love be the key,
Let's unravel its secrets, you and me.
(Chorus)
What is love? Baby, don't hurt me,
Tell me it's more than just a blind plea.
Is it laughter and joy, or agony's sting?
What is love? Baby, let your heart sing.
(Outro)
Love's a melody we're forever trying to find,
Through highs and lows, it intertwines.
So, let's embark on this journey, hand in hand,
Discovering, defining, love's infinite strand.
