Shanice Wilson - If I Never Knew You lyrics

(duet with Jon Secada from Pochahontas soundtrack) Jon: 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 knew 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 Shanice: 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 Jon: I thought our love would be so beautiful Shanice: Somehow we made the whole world bright Both: I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong All they'd leave us were these whispers in the night But still my heart is singing We were right Shanice: If I never knew you If I never knew this love I would have no inkling of How precious life can be Jon: 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 Shanice: 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 Jon: We were right And if I never knew you I'd have lived my whole through Shanice: Empty as the sky Both: Never knowing why Lost forever
