Jon:
|
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 knew 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
|
|
Shanice:
|
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
|
|
Jon:
|
I thought our love would be so beautiful
|
|
Shanice:
|
Somehow we made the whole world bright
|
|
Both:
|
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
|
|
Shanice:
|
If I never knew you
|
If I never knew this love
|
I would have no inkling of
|
How precious life can be
|
|
Jon:
|
There's no moment I regret
|
Since the moment that we met
|
If our time has gone too fast I've lived at last
|
|
Both:
|
I thought our love would be so beautiful
|
Somehow we'd make the whole world bright
|
|
Shanice:
|
I thought our love would be so beautiful
|
We'd turn the darkness into light
|
|
Both:
|
And still my heart is singing
|
We were right
|
|
Jon:
|
We were right
|
And if I never knew you
|
I'd have lived my whole through
|
|
Shanice:
|
Empty as the sky
|
|
Both:
|
Never knowing why
|
Lost forever
|
If I never
|
Knew you
|
