(gary burr/tom shapiro)



Before I knew about you

The moon was just a rock

That hung there silent in the sky

Before I knew about you

I guess it's all the dreams

Were just a way to pass the night



NothingI heard nothing

When I listened to those love songs

I wonderedwas it something

I was missing

Then you came along



Chorus:

I didn't know

I could ever be so loved

I didn't know

That I could give so much

I didn't know

In this life a heart could be so true

I didn't know a thing

Before I knew about you



Before I knew about you

I thought of only me

And how'd I get from day to day

Before I knew about you

I didn't mind the lonely

I never learned another way



I was in the darkness

So it rocked me

Then around came on

A new lifeit started

And it shocked me

How far I had come



(repeat chorus twice)
