Never Knew Love Like This Before

Stephanie Mills – Never Knew Love Like This Before lyrics

I never knew love like this before
Now I’m lonely never more
Since you came into my life

You are my lovelight, this I know
And I’ll never let you go
You my all, you’re heart, part of me

Once I was lost and now I’m found
Then you turned my world around
When I need you, I call your name

‘Cause I never
Knew love like this before
Opened my eyes
‘Cause I never
Knew love like this before
What a surprise

‘Cause I never
Knew love like this before

This feeling’s so deep inside of me
Such a tender fantasy
You’re the one I’m living for

You are my sunlight and my rain
And time could never change
What we share forever more
Ooooh-whooooa

I never knew love like this before
Now I’m lonely never more
Since you came into my life

‘Cause I never
Knew love like this before
Opened my eyes
‘Cause I never
Knew love like this before
What a surprise
‘Cause I never
Knew love like this before

You are my lovelight, this I know
And I’ll never let you go
You my all, you’re part of me
Once I was lost and now I’m found
And you turned my world around
When I need you, I call your name

‘Cause I never
Knew love like this before
Opened my eyes
‘Cause I never
Knew love like this before
What a surprise
‘Cause I never
Knew love like this before
Inside of me
(I never) never
Knew love like this before
Opened my eyes

This may sound strange, but it never dawned on me that this song is a spiritual song eek Reading the lyrics and actually listening to the song it does seem to be just that wink Is there anybody else out there that didn't know this? Maybe it's just me falloff Anyway, simply beautiful song-I love it razz

I didn't know this either. Then again, I rarely observe lyrics when they accompany music.

All the more reason to love this song music

I feel you. I always loved "Never Knew Love Like This Before."

When Bette Midler sang "Stay With Me Baby" in her Divine Madness live album she talked about how when she "first heard this song she thought it was about a man and a woman. Now I ain't so sure. Maybe it's about your Ma, or your Pa, or somebody who left your hurting real bad." She goes on to say that "maybe it's my turn to go away, cause ain't it about time somebody grabbed ahold of me and say NO, YOU CAN'T GO, DONT GOOOOOO ... Stay With Me Baby."

Not a lot of people puttin' it down like that (Steph or Bette) anymore.
