[Mercedes:]
I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older
Ooh, whoa-oh

This mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
But through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

[Mercedes with the Church Choir:]
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

[Mercedes with the Church Choir harmonizing:]
Whoa-oh, oh
I'm gonna take a little time
(A little time to look around me)
I've got nowhere left to hide
(It looks like love has finally found me)

In my life ([The Church Choir:] In my life)
(There's been heartache and pain)

[Mercedes (with the Church Choir):]
(I don't know,) if I can face it again
(Can't stop now)

[Mercedes with the Church Choir harmonizing:]
I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life ([The Church Choir:] This lonely life)

[Mercedes with the Church Choir (Mercedes):]
(Oh) I wanna know what love is
(Oh, oh!) I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
(Yeah) I know you can show me

I wanna know what love is (I wanna know)
I want you

[Mercedes (The Church Choir):]
(To show me) To show me
(I want to feel what love is) And I know, I know
(I know you can show me) Let's talk about love, yeah!

(I wanna know what love is) Love that you feel inside
(I want you to show me) I want you to show me, yeah
(I wanna feel what love is) No, you just can't hide
(I know you can show me) Show me, yeah, yeah

[Mercedes with the Church Choir:]
Yeah!
