You must understand though the touch of your hand
Makes my pulse react
That it's only the thrill of boy meeting girl
Opposites attract
It's physical
Only logical
You must try to ignore that it means more than that
Oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart, when a heart can be broken?
Oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emo-
Oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart, when a heart can be broken?
Oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emo-
Oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart, when a heart can be broken?
It may seem to you that I'm acting confused
When you're close to me
If I tend to look dazed I've read it someplace
I've got cause to be
There's a name for it
There's a phrase that fits
But whatever the reason you do it for me
Oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart, when a heart can be broken?
Oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emotion
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart, when a heart can be broken?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emo-
Oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart, when a heart can be broken?
Oh
Oh, what's love?

My mother was in an abusive relationship with my father for 19 years. Through many stories I began to understand... the abuse was a gradual build. When you’re with the man you love and he does something that hurts you, not everybody has the immediate reaction of - "that's abuse" but rather minimalise into simply, a horrible fight which follows with a great deal of sympathy and remorse by the abuser. When my mother also wanted to finally leave she had us as her children to also worry about, and the now extreme physical distance to figure out how to return to her family. She had savings she had hidden under her mattress which were found and burned by my father, constant hospital trips if he ever got wind of what was happening, etc. I believe I also came across a documentary about Tina Turner’s marriage which also explains her personal story of domestic abuse. There are many reasons why it’s much harder than to just pack a bag and go, and many reasons for women to be supported regardless.
