"Never Knew" lyrics

"Never Knew"

I just ran into a few someones today
Some ones that I never really knew
And I used to think how I had them
All so figured out

But no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
And now the truth of it is, is I want to be like you
So hello, good friend, I want to be next to you
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

So I'll burn all the thoughts of the things that I once said
Because you tore down the walls that the world has put inside my head
And I just get sick of the things that we think, we think we know

And no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
And now the truth of it is, is I want to be like you
So hello, good friend, I want to be next to you
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

So take me and save me and change me and then make me
And embrace me and then brave My heart for you
No, no, 'cause I can't go on without you
And it's time for something new oh oh

And no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
And now the truth of it is, is I want to be like you
So hello, good friend, I want to be next to you
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

And as they strolled along
My heart broke out in song
From all the things and the thoughts
And assumptions that I had wrong
So now I'll be on my way to make this claim
I'll make it famous in every way
I'll make it stay when I will say

That no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
And now the truth of it is, is I want to be like you
So hello, good friend, I want to be next to you
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

Oh no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
And now the truth of it is, is I want to be like you
So hello, good friend, I want to be next to you
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

Oh no no no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
And now the truth of it is, is I want to be like you
So hello, good friend, I want to be next to you
For my head, for my heart, for what's true
