I used to think that love Was only meant for someone else. I watched the whole world fall in love While I kept to myself. And every time somebody said My day would come around, I’d smile and say, “Don’t worry about me, I’m better off alone.” But then you came along… And everything I knew was wrong. I never knew love Until you. Never knew what one little smile Could do. I never knew why A man would give his whole heart away… Until you looked at me That way. Oh, baby… Until you. My friends would talk about their girls And all the things they’d do. I’d laugh and say, “That’s fine for you, But love ain’t something I pursue.” I said no woman in this world Could ever change my mind. Then you touched my hand one evening… And changed it In one night. Oh, you made a liar out of me. And, baby… I’m glad you did. I never knew love Until you. Never knew a lonely heart Could start brand new. I never understood Why somebody would promise forever… But now forever Don’t seem long enough When we’re together. Until you… Until you… There was nobody. Until you… I needed nobody. Until you… Oh, baby… I didn’t know I was lonely. I thought I was strong Because I never needed anyone. But maybe being strong Ain’t walking through this world alone. Maybe strength is having someone Who knows the man you try to hide… And still reaches for your hand And says, “I’m staying by your side.” Baby… You stayed. When I gave you every reason To walk away… You stayed. When I was too proud To tell you what I needed… Somehow you knew. And that’s why— I never knew love Until you! Oh, baby! I never knew love Until you! All those years I thought I knew my heart— I didn’t know a thing! No, no! I never knew A kiss could make me tremble. Never knew A touch could make me weak. Never knew I’d lie awake at midnight Just waiting For the chance to hear you speak. Until you… [Background] Until you… Until you… [Background] Until you… There was no one Who could change me. [Background] Until you… There was no one Who could make me see. [Background] Until you… That the man Who said he’d never fall in love… Was just waiting For the right woman To find me. Ohhhhh… I never knew love… Until you. And if anybody asks me What happened to the man Who said he’d never give his heart away… Tell ’em— He met you. He met you, baby. And there wasn’t a thing He could do. Until you… Until you… My whole life changed… Until you.
