Alexandra Burke - They Don't Know lyrics

I went to the doctor to open up my heart
Got my symptoms all mixed up
He didn't know where to start
Ain't no doctor in this world
That can keep a broken
Heart from falling apart

'Cause they don't know oh, they don't know

I went to my mother to show me how to cry
She said, "Baby, let me shed your tears
I'll make the sacrifice"
But ain't no crying in this world's
Gonna take the place of mine

'Cause they don't know they don't know
Some questions have answers
And others just lead you on
Some answers don't answer enough
But, I know the answer is love
But they don't know oh, they don't know

I went to my brother to help me understand
Asked him why they're walking by
Don't seem to give a damn
Don't they see the love they
Pair's walking by empty handed?

'Cause they don't know they don't know

I went to my father to get some prayer for me
He said I hold my head up high
'cause there's something there for me
Crying but I'm smiling through
'cause suddenly I see

What they don't know
They don't know that sometimes
Some questions have answers
And others just lead you on
Some answers don't answer enough
But, I know the answer is love
But they don't know oh, they don't know
