Never Knew
Discovering Love's Surprise: 'Never Knew' by Ed Patrick
Lyrics
Maybe I'm crazy
Expressing uncertainty about one's sanity or feelings.
'Cause it's only been a couple of days
Reflecting on a short period of time elapsed.
But baby
Addressing the person of interest affectionately.
Here I am asking you to stay
Pleading for the person to remain present in the relationship.
A little while longer
Desiring an extended duration of companionship.
Yeah I don't know what I'd do
Expressing uncertainty about coping without the person.
If you were gone girl
Emphasizing the impact of the person's absence on emotions.
I'd turn a permanent shades of blue
Conveying a potential state of sadness if the person leaves.
I always thought that I would be alright
Challenging the assumption of being fine in solitude.
Being alone
Acknowledging the unexpected difficulty of being alone.
I never knew that I needed you
Realizing the necessity of the person only when in need.
'Til I needed you
Recognizing dependence on the person during times of need.
I never knew that I wanted you
Discovering a desire for the person only when it arises.
'Til I wanted you
Acknowledging newfound feelings of wanting the person.
Lay back lady
Encouraging relaxation and the casting away of worries.
Let's wish these woes away
Suggesting a positive outlook by expressing hope for improvement.
Just say maybe
Asking for a positive response, perhaps to the plea for staying.
And tomorrow I can try again
Highlighting the possibility of a fresh start tomorrow.
But tonight, tonight we got us
Emphasizing the strength of the relationship for the current night.
I never knew that I needed you
Reiterating the realization of needing the person.
'Til I needed you
Reaffirming dependence on the person during times of need.
I never knew that I wanted you
Reiterating the discovery of wanting the person.
'Til I wanted you
Reaffirming newfound feelings of wanting the person.
One true love
Expressing the possibility of the person being the true love.
Just might be enough
Contemplating whether one true love is sufficient.
So baby please
Pleading for the person's consideration in the relationship.
Consider me
Requesting to be acknowledged and valued by the person.
I never knew that I needed you
Reiterating the realization of needing the person.
'Til I needed you
Reaffirming dependence on the person during times of need.
I never knew that I wanted you
Reiterating the discovery of wanting the person.
'Til I wanted you
Reaffirming newfound feelings of wanting the person.
