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´d make 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 saying we were right

Oh if I never knew you
If I never knew you
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´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 saying 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
If I never knew you (oh)
If I never knew you
