Stephen Speaks - Never Knew lyrics

rate me

never knew

(r. ripperger )

well i know we've both come so far to be here

and we're both twice the man we used to be

cause we've made it through the fall and through the winter

and i've got myself together as you can see

though more than once i've doubted your decision

you once told me a man must do what he's got to do

things are so bad, after all i've made it this far

and it's clear to me you're hangin in there too

{ but i wish for all my life you could have been there

when i climbed up high & fell down far below

and i wish you could have seen the fire in my eyes

when i found my dreams and refused to let them go}

but for now i've got to say goodbye again

and go back into my life without you

ya know, it never dawned on me what i was missing

until i had a glimpse of what i never knew

and now we leave as such a civil people

like business men after a rendezvous

and we say next time we'll stay here a little longer

and we'll discuss all the things we've just got to do

{chorus}

maybe someday my dreams will be complete

and we both will know what it would have been

but you've got to promise me you won't accept defeat

that you'll run this race until we meet again

that you'll run this race until we reach the end

{chorus}
