Jon Secada and Shanice
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 find in you
The missing part of me
In this world so full of fear
Full of raging 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'd thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow it'd make the whole world bright
I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong
All they'd leave this world is 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 your love
Since the moment that we met
I would have no inkling of
If our time has come too fast
How precious life can be
I've breathed at last
I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow it'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
I'd have lived my whole life through
Empty as the sky, never knowing why
Lost forever
If I never knew you
