I Know What Kind Of Love Lyrics
I know what kind of love this is
After all I was there when we made it
I know why I did what I did
To end a lifetime of wallflower shade
With Buster Brown
The big man in the town
When no one was around
I know what kind of love this is
I know what kind of love this is
The man in black said You won't mind
It'll be over before you know it
You can pretend that you are blind
If it will help you to get over it
On my parents' bed
Pretending I am dead
Remember every word he says
I know what kind of love this is
I know what kind of love this is
I know what kind of love this is
And when I wake he will be gone
And I won't see him until the classroom
It's just a tale of right and wrong
That they will whisper inside the bathroom
How she lost the game
She'll never be the same
He doesn't even know her name but
I know what kind of love this is
I know what kind of love this is
I know what kind of love this is
After all I was there when we made it
I know why I did what I did
To end a lifetime of wallflower shade
With Buster Brown
The big man in the town
When no one was around
I know what kind of love this is
I know what kind of love this is
The man in black said You won't mind
It'll be over before you know it
You can pretend that you are blind
If it will help you to get over it
On my parents' bed
Pretending I am dead
Remember every word he says
I know what kind of love this is
I know what kind of love this is
I know what kind of love this is
And I won't see him until the classroom
It's just a tale of right and wrong
That they will whisper inside the bathroom
How she lost the game
She'll never be the same
He doesn't even know her name but
I know what kind of love this is
I know what kind of love this is
I know what kind of love this is

This is a great cover version....the song is about a girl raped by a teacher she has a crush on.
He's the father of her baby, and what's worse, she's not even one of his students. He doesn't even know her name.
Thanks for that helpful explanation. One thing, though, is that I think she was his student. She says "I won't see him until the classroom." I think he just didn't bother to learn her name, or the classroom was too big to know every student's name. Great song.
