There's a light
A certain kind of light
That never shone on me
I want my life to be
Lived with you
Lived with you

There's a way ev'rybody says
To do each and ev'ry little thing
But what does it bring
If I ain't got you, ain't got faith, baby ?

You don't know what it's like
Baby you don't know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

In my brain
I see your face again
I know my frame of mind
You ain't got to be so blind
And I'm blind, so, so, so blind
I'm a man, can't you see
What I am
I live and breathe for you
But what good does it do
If I ain't got you, ain't got faith baby?

You don't know what it's like
Baby you don't know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

You don't know

I want my life to be
Lived with you
Lived with
You

You don't know what it's like
You don't know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

Oh no baby please

You don't know what it's like
You don't know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

You don't know
You don't know what it's like

To love somebody
To love somebody
To love somebody
To love somebody
