You say you want to seek the truth

But it's hard to find, no one to help you

Your friends don't have the time So you ride around in your car

Switch on the radio, you want to relate to

Something you once read in a book

What kind of a way to try to take a look Until I got hurt I was looking, I was on my way

Until I got hurt, until I got hurt, darling I painted my face gray

Until I got hurt, till got hurt, why didn't I, I didn't think of this

Until I got hurt, till I got hurt, baby, I didn't know' what love is You say you want to learn to laugh

'Cause music makes you cry

But the tears you shed are only in your eye So you turn to any phony mouth

With a tale to tell but he's just a hoaxer

Don't you know selling peace and religion

Between his jokes and his karma chewing gum Until I got hurt, I was looking, I was the same as you

Until I got hurt, until I got hurt, darling I did not know what to do

Until I got hurt, till I got hurt, why didn't I, I didn't think of this

Until I got hurt, till I got hurt, baby, I didn't know what love is Young son, don't let me down, young son

I'm trusting you to keep on, never turn away now

Hold on, never let go, now hold on

Turn your heart to the bright sun

Love will come your way 'Cause till you make that final show

You'll never know what love

You've been missing, missing You say you want to seek the truth

But you work alone, no one to help you

And nobody to push you on So you sit at home drinking your wine

Television on, you wait for a miracle

'Cause you say one day one will come along

But wishful thinking, boy any minute now you might be gone

I'd like to help you brother but that would be wrong So until I got hurt, I was looking, I was on my way

Until I got hurt, until I got hurt, darling I didn't know which way

Until I got hurt, till I got hurt, why didn't I, I didn't think of this

Until I got hurt, till I got hurt, baby, I didn't know what love is, oh no Until I got hurt, oh I didn't know what love is
