Meaning of Love

I've read more than a hundred books,
Seeing love mentioned many thousand times,
But despite all the places I've looked,
It's still no clearer,
It's just not enough,
I'm still no nearer
The meaning of love

Noted down all my observations
Spent an evening watching television
Still I couldn't say with precision
Know it's a feeling and it comes from above,
But what's the meaning
The meaning of love
(Tell me).

From the notes that I've made so far
Love seems something like wanting a scar,
But I could be wrong
I'm just not sure you see
I've never been in love before
Next I asked several friends of mine
If they could spare a few minutes of their time,
Their looks suggested that I've lost my mind,
Tell me the answer
My Lord high above
Tell me the meaning,
The meaning of love

From the notes that I've made so far
Love seems something like wanting a scar,
But I could be wrong
I'm just not sure you see
I've never been in love before
The meaning of love
(Tell me)
The meaning of love
(Tell me)
