I Never Knew 1919 Berlin

How short the days
that we spent together
How long the hours
since you went away.
The world might still be
a golden day dream.
Had I known then
what I know today.

I never knew
how much I loved you
I never knew
what love could mean
I never knew
I would regret dear
The golden days
that might have been.
I never knew
I could be lonely
I never new
I could feel blue
I never knew
How much I'd want you
until I knew someone else
wanted you.

I never knew
how much I loved you
I never knew
what love could mean
I never knew
I would regret dear
The golden days
that might have been.
I never knew
I could be lonely
I never new
I could feel blue
I never knew
How much I'd want you
until I knew someone else
wanted you.

We miss the flow'rs
when the snow is falling
We miss the sun
when the skies are grey.
The sweetest dream
soon becomes a mem'ry.
A golden mem'ry of yesterday.

I never knew
how much I loved you
I never knew
what love could mean
I never knew
I would regret dear
The golden days
that might have been.
I never knew
I could be lonely
I never new
I could feel blue
I never knew
How much I'd want you
until I knew someone else
wanted you.

I never knew
how much I loved you
I never knew
what love could mean
I never knew
I would regret dear
The golden days
that might have been.
I never knew
I could be lonely
I never new
I could feel blue
I never knew
How much I'd want you
until I knew someone else
wanted you.
