I Never Knew Love

I never knew the power of a song until I heard the music playing the day mama passed on never knew what innocence was about til the first time I laid eyes on the face of a new-born child chorus I never knew love no, I mean real love I never knew that kind of love til this moment with you I never understood the meaning of home til I pulled into that old dirt drive after being gone too long I didn't know what serenity really was til I stopped one day to listen to that river gently run chorus and I never knew love no, I mean real love I never knew that kind of love til this moment with you i've known the hunger before tonight for other love I felt the yearning I felt the fire, in their touch this goes deeper than any thing i've ever known beyond my heart, clear down to my soul I never knew what beauty could behold til you looked at me and I could see forever unfold oh you made me whole chorus I never knew love no I mean real love I never knew that kind of love til this moment with you til I was loved by you
