Essenes - "I Never Knew"

I Never Knew

So many times I look for love
And everytime I've searched in vain
Someone would give me hope
But it would always end the same
Everytime

And I've been waiting all my life
For someone I can trust
'Cause I've been hurt so many times
I could never believe in love

Until you make me feel
The way someone should feel
Oh…

I never knew, oh whoa…
And I never knew
I never knew love

Well, I've been searching for so long
Didn't know what I've been looking for
Till you came and gave me strength
By making me see

There's no order to love than hurt and pain
That's all I'd ever known
Oh…

I never knew, oh whoa…
And I never knew
I never knew love till I found you
(Love finally captured our hearts)

I never knew, no no no
And I never knew
I never knew love

Until the day you walked into my life, babe
Oh… as time slipped away, we got it right, yeah
Love finally captured our hearts

You made me feel how someone should feel
Oh…

I never knew, no no no
And I never knew
I never knew love till I found you
(Love finally captured our heаrtѕ)

I never knew, no no
And I never knew, oh
I never knew love
