What Love Is

How mysterious this life can be

Full of beautiful surprises

I never really knew the man I thought was me

Dreams that I believed

Convinced my destiny

I was meant to be alone

But how can you know how a star looks

If you've never looked at the sky?

I couldn't have told you what blue is

Till I looked into your eyes

Or how soft the feel of a cloud is

Till I was touching your skin

The world is a wonder of wonders I'd never seen

I never imagined the power

I never imagined the need

I never imagined what love is

Now love is all I dream

How wonderful was the awakening

Now everything is the sunrise

Painted in sounds of your breathing

Coloured by your signs

I never knew

What it was to love

Much too sensible, too reasonable

Ever to believe in miracles

But now you've come to me

Changed my destiny

I'll never be alone

I never imagined the power

I never imagined the need

I never imagined what love is

Now love is all I dream

How wonderful was the awakening

Now everything is the sunrise

Painted in sounds of your breathing

Coloured by your signs

I never imagined the power

I never imagined the need

I never imagined what love is

Now love is all I dream

I never imagined the power

(I never imagined the need)

(I never imagined what love is)

(Now love is all I dream)

I never knew

What it was to love
