If I Never Knew You

If I never knew you
If I never felt this love
I would have no inkling of
How precious love can be

And if I never held you
I would never have a clue
How at last I'd find in you
The missing part of me

In this world so full of fears
Full of rage and lies
I can see the truth so clear
In your eyes, so dry your eyes

And I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost forever
If I never knew you

If I never knew you
I'd be safe but half as real
Never knowing I could feel
A love so strong and true

I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost forever
If I never knew you

I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we made the whole world bright
I never thought that fear and hate could be so strong
All they'd leave us where these whispers in the night
But still my heart is singing, we were right

-Oh, if I never knew you
-There's no moment I regret
-If I never knew this love
-Since the moment that we met
-I would have no inkling of
-If our time has gone too fast
-How precious life can be
-I've lived at last, yeah yeah

I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we'd make the whole world bright
I thought our love would be so beautiful
We'd turn the darkness into light
And still my heart is singing, we were right
We were right

And If I never knew you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Empty as the sky, never knowing why
Lost forever, if I never knew you, yeah
