They Don't Know

I went to the doctor to open up my heart
Got my symptoms all mixed up
He didnt know where to start
Aint no doctor in this world
That can keep a broken heart from falling apart
Cause they dont know
Oh, they dont know

I went to my mother to show me how to cry
She said 'Baby let me shed your tears,
Ill make the sacrifice'
But aint no crying in this worlds gonna take the place of mine
Cause they dont know
They dont know

Some questions have answers
And others just lead you on
Some answers dont answer enough
But I know
The answer is love
But they dont know
Oh, they dont know

I went to my brother to help me understand
Asked him why theyre walking by
Dont seem to give a damn
Dont they see the love they pairs walking by empty-handed
Cause they dont know
They dont know

I went to my father to get some prayer for me
He said I hold my head up high
Cause theres something there for me
Crying but Im smiling through
Cause suddenly I see
What they dont know
They dont know that
Sometimes,
Some questions have answers
And others just lead you on
Some answers dont answer enough
But I know
The answer is love
But they dont know
Oh, they dont know...
