Lirieke: Nanci Griffith. I Knew Love.

(By Roger Brown)

I knew love
When it still meant forever
When a feeling shared didn't always
Have to hurt
And a promise that was made would
Go unbroken
I knew love
When it was more than just a word

I knew a time
When hope was all you needed
And if you cared you found a way to
Make things work
When life was what two people
Shared together
Oh, I knew love
When it was more than just a word

[Chorus:]
I knew love
When I could still believe
It was the greatest power in
The world
I knew love
When it was more than just a word

I knew hearts
When they made it all so easy
And sad goodbyes were seldom
Ever heard
When I wouldn't have to read this
Note that says you're leaving
I knew love
When it was more than just a word

[Chorus]

I knew love when it was
More than just a word
