What Do You Know About Love?

"What Do You Know About Love?" is a song performed by Patti Murin and Jelani Alladin in the Broadway adaption of Frozen. The song takes place shortly after Anna meets Kristoff and Sven. As they embark on their search for Elsa, the two disagree on the idea of true love while crossing a bridge. When Anna manages to save Kristoff from falling through, the two realize that they are beginning to trust each other.
The song was one of four that were released in the weeks prior to the show's Broadway debut in March 2018. The song was rerecorded for the cast soundtrack album, released the following May.
The song is reprised later in the show as "Kristoff Lullaby".
==Lyrics==
Anna: Hans is not a stranger.
Kristoff: Okay. So what's his last name?
Anna: Of the Southern Isles.
Kristoff: Foot size?
Anna: Foot size doesn't matter.
Kristoff: But knowing a man before you marry him, eh, kinda does.
Anna:
You’ve got opinions
On my life and my relations
But let me tell you what
Kristoff: Okay, enlighten me.
Anna:
Love is the one thing
That has zero complications
And I can trust my gut
Kristoff: Okay, you frighten me.
Anna:
Some people know their hearts
The minute true love starts
Kristoff: Some people read a lot of books
Anna:
I like books!
Some people simply know
When true love says "Hello"
Kristoff:
Some folks are taken in by
Curly locks and princely looks!
Anna: He does have princely looks. We agree on that one.
Kristoff:
Right. By the way, what color eyes does he have?
All I’m saying is
When you go to climb a mountain
You don’t just jump to the top
Anna: If it’s true love, you can!
Kristoff:
There's scaling and scramblin'
And too many steps for countin'
And the work doesn’t stop
Anna: Maybe for you.
Kristoff:
Love’s not an easy climb
You have to take your time
Anna: We get a whole life, that’s the plan.
Kristoff:
That’s not a plan!
Love’s not a thing you get
It’s work and tears and sweat
Anna: So says a sweaty, smelly mountain man
Both:
Oh, what do you know about love?
What do you know about love?
What do you know about love?
What do you know about love?
Anna: Have you even kissed a girl?
Kristoff: Pssh!
Anna: I mean, a human girl?
Kristoff: Oh.
Both: What do you know about anything, anything?
Kristoff:
Anyone with half a brain
Would have worn some winter gear
Anna:
Anyone with half a life
Would have one friend who’s not a deer!
Kristoff:
I do!
Any fool who jumps head long
Is gonna bang their head
Anna:
Any fool who doesn’t jump right now
Is probably gonna end up dead
[Kristoff falls through the bridge.]
Kristoff: Whoa!
Anna:
Like I said.
Are you okay there?
Kristoff: I've been better.
Anna: You should have listened to me. I've got good instincts. I know danger when I see it...just like I know love when I see it.
[Anna, while pulling Kristoff up, manages to fall through a gap in the bridge herself, leaving her upside-down with only one foot tucked in the bridge rail to hold her.]
Kristoff: Thank you!
Anna: Huh. That's not quite how I thought we'd end up.
Kristoff: You gotta think things through in life, and in love.
Anna: Touché.
Kristoff: Here. Grab on and brace yourself. Ready? Here we go.
[Anna holds on tight as Kristoff catches her from the bridge rail, and carries her up in his arms.]
Anna:
I’d like to point out
That we’ve come a good long way here
And that you’re, wow... really strong
Kristoff:
I lift a lot of ice.
You saved my life just now
I guess I gotta say here
My first impression was wrong
Anna: And see? You’re nice!
Kristoff: That jump was really brave
Anna: Your catch was quite a save
Kristoff: You’ve got some guts
Anna: You’ve got some... brains
Kristoff: Thanks.
Both:
With miles and miles to go
I guess it’s nice to know
That I can trust you...
Though the question still remains
What do you know about love?
Kristoff: Just be careful.
Both: What do you know about love?
Anna: Have a little faith.
Both:
At least we know one thing:
This trip should be interesting
What do you know about love?
What do you know about love?
