Why Don T You Do Right - Helen Merrill

You don’t know what love is Until you’ve learned the meaning of the blues

Until you’ve lost a love, you had to lose

You don’t know what love is You don’t know how lips hurts

Until you’ve kissed and had to pay the cost

Until you’ve flipped your heart and you have lost

Oh, you don’t know what love is Do you know how a lost heart fears

The thought of reminiscing

And how lips that taste of tears

They lose their taste for kissing

You don’t know how hearts burn

For love that cannot live yet never dies

Until you’ve faced each dawn with sleepless eyes

Oh, you don’t know what love is Oh, you don’t know, you don’t know what love is Oh, you don’t know

Oh, you don’t know, I say you don’t know
