i never knew

( 2002 us 5-track promo cd single )

it's really been a long time

since i let somebody hold me

since i felt safe in somebody's arms, emm emm

you were a good friend i could confide in

but after all the lies he told me

i couldn't let nobody in my heart

i was torn apart

all this time you've been right here

he's been doing nothing but wrong

and though the best thing in my life was

here with me all along

i never knew

right beside me there was an angel

i never knew

you'd give my heart the wings to fly

because of you

everything in my life is changing

turning it to

the kind of heaven that i never knew

he kissed away my tears

and now they've disappeared

you make me feel safe in somebody's arms

you're the kind that can do me no harm

these questions everybody asks me

they say they've never seen me so happy

but that's a secret between you and me

they don't know nothing about us baby

can't let up

can't tell anybody that you're not from around here

they don't know that you're an angel

but now it's all so clear

i never knew

right beside me there was an angel

i never knew

you'd give my heart the wings to fly

because of you

everything in my life is changing

turning it to

the kind of heaven that i never knew

is this a dream

are you for real

you got me honey

feeling things that i never thought i'd feel

you taught me love

don't have to break my heart in two

that's just one more of those things

that i never, never knew

i never knew

right beside me

there was an angel

i never, never knew

(that my heart could fly)

it's all because of you baby

my life is changing

turning it to

the kind of heaven that i never knew

the kind of heaven that i never knew

and never never knew
