Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know better, learned my lesson
Got your number, see you comin'
Little tricks to keep me guessin'
Don't bother, just keep on walkin'
Once a lifetime, one finds another
Once a lifetime, I found my other
Found the one who washes me holy
Seeks my weakness, watches me closely
[Chorus]
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Why love is not enough
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Why love is not enough
[Instrumental]
When you're older, maybe wiser
Conjure up this distant past
Wipe the dust out of your eyes and
See this present clear at last
See this tree, see this garden
Feel the sun's heat on your skin
See this man that you discarded
Feel the sorrow that is his
[Chorus]
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Why love is not enough
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Why love is not enough
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Why love is not enough
[Instrumental]
When you're older, maybe wiser
Conjure up this distant past
Wipe the dust out of your eyes and
See this present clear at last
See this tree, see this garden
Feel the sun's heat on your skin
See this man that you discarded
Feel the sorrow that is his
[Chorus]
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Why love is not enough
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Why love is not enough
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Why love is not enough
