From the recording I Cannot Sleep Without You

Lyrics

VERSE
I did my share of dating; found the right one
Fell in love, I thought, but we were one and done
Licked my wounds, started looking around
Lo and behold, look what I found

PRE-CHORUS
Now the second time through, I want to be real sure

CHORUS
(That) (I hope) I know what love is and what it’s not
I don’t want to be fooled again; oh, that was pretty tough
I want to know I’ve hit love’s jackpot
As to me and her right now, I sure hope it’s love

SOLO/VERSE
How you realize when it’s love, that’s the thing
It’s good to know before trading wedding rings
Wish there was a machine, oh, that would let you know
But it’s the heart, my friend, not a binary yes or no

Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
Now, as it happens, the more I’m with her
My heart is taking control

SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Okay, heart, you win; it’s love
