Lyrics
If I never knew you
If I never felt this love
I would have no inkling of
How precious life can be
If I never held 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
I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we'd make the whole world bright
I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong
All they'd leave us were these wispers in the night
But still my heart is saying we were right
For if I never knew you (there's no moment I regret)
If I never knew this love (since the moment that we met)
I would have no inkling of (if our time has gone too fast)
How precious life can be (I've lived at last)
And I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Empty as the sky
Never knowing why
Lost forever
If I never knew you
Writer(s): Alan Menken, Stephen Schwartz
