I never knew the power of a song, Till I heard the music playin', The day that momma passed on. Never knew what innocence was about, Till the first time I laid eyes on the face, Of a newborn child. I never knew love, No I mean real love, I never knew that kind of love, Till this moment with you. I never understood the meaning of home, Till I pulled into that old dirt drive, After being gone too long. I didn't know what serenity really was, Till I stopped one day to listen to, A river gently run. I never knew love, No I mean real love, I never knew that kind of love, Till this moment with you. I've known the hunger before tonight, For other loves. I felt the yearning, I felt the fire, In their touch. But this goes deeper, Than anything I've ever known. Beyond my heart, Clear down to my soul. I never knew what beauty could behold, Till you looked at me, and I could see, Forever unfold. Oh, you made me whole. I never knew love, No I mean real love, I never knew that kind of love, Till this moment with you. Till I was loved, by you.
