I knew love when it still meant forever When a feeling shared didn't always have to hurt And a promise that was made would go unbroken I knew love when it was more than just a word I knew a time when hope was all you needed And if you cared you found a way to make things work When life was what two people shared together Oh, I knew love when it was more than just a word I knew love when I could still believe It was the greatest power in the world I knew love when it was more than just a word I knew hearts when they made it all so easy And sad goodbyes were seldom ever heard When I wouldn't have to read this note that says you're leaving I knew love when it was more than just a word I knew love when I could still believe It was the greatest power in the world I knew love when it was more than just a word I knew love when it was more than just a word
