Shelby Lynne - If I Never Knew You lyrics

rate me

If I never knew you,

If I never felt this love,

I would have no inkling of,

How precious life 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 fear,

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.

And 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 knew 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.

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...)

I thought our love would be so beautiful;

Somehow we made 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.

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.
