In a sitch like this you gotta think
and i don´t think you think
about the way he thinks
and i know you live life for yourself
but it all comes down to the way you help

and i know your life is such a hell
you wake up early and you work until
you have your drinks at 5 o´clock
the hours blend and your thoughts
all haunt
your hopes, your dreams, your everything
well, mama, i hope, i dream that you won´t leave

and i have a question:
what is love?
what is love?
oh, oh oh oh-oh-oh
is it giving up?
´cause that´s not how you raised me, yeah.

in a sitch like this you gotta think
and i don´t think you think
about the way she thinks
and i know you work hard everyday
but it all comes down to the way you´re paid

and i know you´re oh so sorry dad
i truly believe that you´re a better man
than to share one kiss and then walk away
from the love you come home everyday
your hopes, your dreams, your everything
well daddy, i hope, i dream that she won´t leave

and i have a question:
what is love?
what is love?
oh, oh oh oh-oh-oh
is it giving up?
´cause that´s not how you raised me

and what is love?
what is love?
oh, oh oh oh-oh-oh
see, i don´t know anymore
i used to look up to that love
