In my brain
I see your face again
And I know my frame of mind
Oh, you ain't got to be so blind
Woman I'm blind, very, very blind
And I'm a man
Can't you see, what I am
I'd move heaven and earth for you
Oh, but what good will it do
If I ain't got you, if I ain't got you?

Chorus:
You don't know what it's like
Oh baby, you don't know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you
I love you!
I love you!
I love you!

You don't know what it's like
You'll never, you'll never
(You don't know what it's like)
You'll never know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you
