Doug Stone - I Never Knew Love lyrics

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
