[smith]
if i never knew you
if i never felt this love
i would have no inkling of
how precious life can be
And 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
[pocahontas]
if i never knew you
i'd be safe but half as real
never knowing i could feel
a love so strong and true
I'm so grateful to you
i'd have lived my whole life through
lost forever
if i never knew you
[smith]
i thought our love would be so beautiful
[pocahontas]
somehow we made the whole world bright
[both]
i never knew that fear and hate could be so strong
all they'd leave us where these whispers in the night
but still my heart is singing
we were right
[pocahontas]
if i never knew you
if i never knew this love
i would have no inkling of
how precious life can be
[smith]
there's no moment i regret
since the moment that we met
if our time has gone too fast
i've lived at last...
[both]
i thought our love would be so beautiful
somehow we'd make the whole world bright
[pocahontas]
i thought our love would be so beautiful
we'd turn the darkness into light
[both]
and still my heart is singing
we were right
[smith]
we were right
and if i never knew you
i'd have lived my whole life through
[pocahontas]
empty as the sky
[both]
never knowing why
lost forever
if i never knew you
