Before I Knew

Verse 1

I was a house with the lights turned off

Furniture standing in the dark

Doors painted shut

Windows sealed with pride

Never knew there was a spark

Pre-Chorus

Then You came like morning

Without a knock or a sound

And everything I'd buried

Was suddenly found

Chorus

Before I knew what love was

I was only breathing not alive

Before I knew what love was

I was lost but You were the light

Now every shadow has a reason

Every wound has a way to sing

Before I knew what love was

I never knew a thing

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Never knew a thing

Oh-oh-oh

Yeah-eah

Verse 2

I thought that love was a story people tell

A pretty word for something out of reach

But You showed me it's the ground beneath my feet

The quiet lesson that pain came to teach

Pre-Chorus

You came like morning

Without a knock or a sound

And everything I'd buried

Was suddenly found

Chorus

Before I knew what love was

I was only breathing not alive

Before I knew what love was

I was lost but You were the light

Now every shadow has a reason

Every wound has a way to sing

Before I knew what love was

I never knew a thing

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Never knew a thing

Oh-oh-oh

Yeah-eah

Bridge

Now I know

Now I see

It was always there

Waiting for me

Now I know

Now I feel

Everything unreal

Finally real

Chorus

Before I knew what love was

I was only breathing not alive

Before I knew what love was

I was lost but You were the light

Now every shadow has a reason

Every wound has a way to sing

Before I knew what love was

I never knew a thing

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Never knew a thing

Oh-oh-oh

Now I know everything
