If I Never Knew You by Michael Crawford Lyrics

From Pocahontas

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

And I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Empty as the sky

Pocahontas:
Never knowing why

Both:
Lost forever
If I never knew you
