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
