Before I knew I loved you
Hope wasn’t even a dream
‘Cause courage was leaving me

Before I knew I loved you
I found my new best friend
Not knowing to what end

Before I knew, I loved you
Spent time getting to know
Not ready for where it would go

Before — I knew I loved you
Once — I knew I loved you
After I told you, I loved you.
After you told me you loved me

Once I knew I loved you
Faith was a certainty
But we had another reality

Once I knew I loved you
It seemed possible at a cost
To have what others lost

Once I knew I loved you
Words were on my lips
Like fine wine in small sips

Before I knew I loved you
Once I knew I loved you
After I told you, I loved you

After I told you I loved you
There was hope with each new sun
To know what we already knew
Our love could be won

After you told me you loved me
Lives were forever changed
Our hope no longer a dream

Before I knew I loved you
Once I knew I loved you
After I told you, I loved you
After you told me you loved me
