If I never knew you

If I never felt this love

I would have no inkling of

How precious life can be

And if I never held you

I would never have a clue

How at last I'd find in you

The missing part of me Liz woke to a soft caress against her cheek, with light kisses being peppered along the crown of her head. She sighed softly, letting a stifled yawn follow afterwards. “I’m sorry if I woke you,” whispered Max’s gentle voice. “You just looked too precious not to kiss.” Liz smiled softly, nestling her head further into the crook of his neck. She felt Max’s hand wander adoringly up her bare arm, attentive to each area of her creamy skin. In this world so full of fear

Full of rage and lies

I can see the truth so clear

In your eyes

So dry your eyes

And I'm so grateful to you

I'd have lived my whole life through

Lost forever

If I never knew you “You look so beautiful and peaceful when you sleep,” Max continued. “You look beautiful when you’re awake too. You always look beautiful. Always.” Taking her hand in his, he brought it to his lips, devoting a kiss to each one of her petite fingers. “Sometimes I wonder if you’re an angel sent to me for all my wrong doings, in the past, in the present and in the future.” Max placed kisses across her shoulder, leading a path down towards Liz’s hand again. “But then I realize, whether or not you’re made for me, I know in here-” with Liz’s index finger, he pointed to his heart “-that you complete me in every way possible.” If I never knew you

I'd be safe but half as real

Never knowing I could feel

A love so strong and true

I'm so grateful to you

I'd have lived my whole life through

Lost forever

If I never knew you “Are you sure it’s not the other way around?” Liz question, finally looking up into Max’s round, adoring eyes. Max’s hand found its home against her jaw, stroking her cheek again. “Nope. Wings wouldn’t fit on my back. Broad shoulders, you know.” Max grinned causing Liz to giggle at his jesting. The innocence and purity of her laughter affected Max deeply, and his grin deepened. This was heaven. I thought our love would be so beautiful

Somehow we made the whole world bright

I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong

All they'd leave us where these whispers in the night

But still my heart is singing

We were right

If I never knew you

If I never knew this love

I would have no inkling of

How precious life can be Letting another soft sigh emit, Liz laid an arm across Max’s well-sculpted chest. “I could wake up like this every morning. I could just live like this forever,” Liz admitted softly. There's no moment I regret

Since the moment that we met

If our time has gone too fast

I've lived at last...

I thought our love would be so beautiful

Somehow we'd make the whole world bright

I thought our love would be so beautiful “As long as you’re with me, I don’t care where or how I wake up and live my life. I just want you to be there with me.” Liz traced invisible circles along Max’s nude upper body. “There isn’t anywhere else I’d rather be.” We'd turn the darkness into light

And still my heart is singing

We were right

We were right

And If I never knew you

I'd have lived my whole life through

Empty as the sky

Never knowing why

Lost forever

If I never knew you
