Love was like a stranger i felt lucky just to let inside
I said “oh love, now tell me what i’ll have to change
And what i’ll have to hide for love”
Always shifting into something else i thought that was the price
Tell me what i’ll have to sacrifice
And i will lay it down, i will lay it down
I never knew love would tell me i was worth the fight
I never knew love could hear the wrong and see the right
I never knew i could tell the truth thе whole thing
I look up and you’re still listening
‘causе i never knew
Love was like a pilot sped me through the clouds to mandalay
I said “oh love, i thought we’d rest a while
But now i see we’re going to stay right here”
And i said it’s for the best, i’m sure i had no better plans
Ask me what it is that i’m still holding in my hands
And i will lay it down, i will lay it down
I never knew love could ask what i was searching for
I never knew love would walk beside me through the door
Never knew it would open up the atlas for me
Hold the map to find my story
’cause i never knew
I thought love was hoping that you had enough
To give to someone else
No one ever told me i should lift my hand
And ask for love myself
But it wasn’t a surprise to know i told myself a pack of lies
Whenever i’d rush to answer every beck and call
I knew in my heart that wasn’t really love at all
You might go and the sky will fall, the oceans grieve
The earth will shake
I’ll still believe in love
I just never knew
