If I Never Knew You Lyrics - Singles - Shelby Lynne

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 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
