[Verse 1]
I remember the times when I first fell in love,
I swore that we fit like a hand in a glove
We shared, we cared, and even held hands
We had Kodak moments, and we made big plans,
The days were exciting, not like any before
But In just a few years, I would understand more.
[CHORUS]
I never knew lonely... until I knew love.
I thank the Lord, He sent you from above.
'Cause I never knew love... until we became two.
So I'm alright with lonely... as long as I’m with you!
[guitar fill]
[Verse 2]
The house is too quiet ever since you’re gone.
And it hurts to admit, that I'm here all alone.
I can't stand the silence. Shadows and echoes extend.
Just one at dinner. One sleeps here again.
One load of laundry. One name on the door
Is this all there is? Gotta be something more!
[CHORUS]
I never knew lonely... until I knew love.
I thank the Lord, He sent you from above.
'Cause I never knew love... until we became two.
So I'm alright with lonely... as long as I’m with you!
[solo]
[Verse 3]
I used to think I knew love, but that wasn't quite true,
Your love lifts me up, and keeps me grounded too.
Now I know true love, it’s so patient and kind.
You share that love daily… it’s always on my mind.
It binds us together, whether out or at home,
You saved me from lonely, when I was all alone.
[CHORUS]
I never knew lonely... until I truly knew love.
I thank the Lord, He sent you from above.
'Cause I never knew love... until we became two.
So I'm alright with lonely... as long as I’m with you!
Yes, I'm alright with lonely... as long as I’m with you!
