If I Never Knew You by The Cheetah Girls Lyrics
[Verse 1: Kiely Williams]
If I never knew you, if I never felt this love
I would have no inkling of how precious life can be
[Adrienne Bailon]
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
[Interlude: Kiely Williams & Adrienne Bailon]
In this world, so full of fear
Full of rage and lies
[Sabrina Bryan]
I can see the truth so clear in your eyes
So, dry your eyes
[Refrain: The Cheetah Girls]
And, I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through... lost forever
If I never knew you
[Adrienne Bailon]
Mm-hmm-mmm
[Verse 2: Kiely Williams]
And, if I never knew you, I'd be safe, but half as real
Never knowing I could feel a love so strong and true
[Refrain 1: The Cheetah Girls]
And, I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through... lost forever
If I never knew you
[Bridge 1: Sabrina Bryan & Adrienne Bailon ]
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 where these whispers in the night
But, still my heart is sayin' we were right
[Verse 3: Adrienne Bailon]
Ohhhh-oh-oooh
If I never knew you
(There's no moment I regret)
If I never knew your love
(Since the moment that we met)
I would have no inkling of how precious life can be
(If our time has gone too fast... I have lived at last)
Ooohh-ohh-oh, yea-yeea-yeeaaah, yeeaaah-ah, yea!
[Bridge 2: Adrienne Bailon, Sabrina Bryan, & Kiely Williams]
I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow, we'd make the whole world bright
I thought our love would be so beautiful
We'd turn the darkness into light!
And, still my heart is sayin' we were right
We were right!
[Refrain 2: The Cheetah Girls & Adrienne Bailon
And, if I never knew you (if I never knew you!)
I'd have lived my whole life through-
Empty as the sky, never knowing why
Lost forever, if I never knew you
[Outro: The Cheetah Girls & Adrienne Bailon]
If I never knew you
Ooo-oh
If I never knew you
If I never knew you, if I never felt this love
I would have no inkling of how precious life can be
[Adrienne Bailon]
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
[Interlude: Kiely Williams & Adrienne Bailon]
In this world, so full of fear
Full of rage and lies
[Sabrina Bryan]
I can see the truth so clear in your eyes
So, dry your eyes
[Refrain: The Cheetah Girls]
And, I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through... lost forever
If I never knew you
