If I Never Knew You

If I Never Knew You
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

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 were 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
We were right

And if I never knew you              (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
