[Verse 1]
I was colder before we met
Heart was trampled on like a welcome mat
And those things can be hard to forget
But don't hold it against me, babe
I've tried every way to say it
But there's something missin' in the language
To tell you all the things I'm feelin'
To tell you
[Chorus]
"I didn't know that I needed you
Didn't know that I needed you now
I didn't know that I needed you
Didn't know that I needed you now
But I did then and I still do
'Cause there'll never be no one like you
I didn't know that I needed you
But I needed you"
[Verse 2]
You can blamе it all on happenstance
When you talk about mе to your friends (Talk about me to your friends)
But this is no coincidence
I'm burnin' up with love for you, babe (Burnin' up with love for you, babe)
But you didn't look at me as someone incomplete
Or take off runnin' when I was hard to read
If there's one thing that I could tell you (There's one thing that I could tell you)
Then I'd tell you
[Chorus]
"I didn't know that I needed you
Didn't know that I needed you now
I didn't know that I needed you
Didn't know that I needed you now
But I did then and I still do
'Cause there'll never be no one like you
I didn't know that I needed you
But I needed you"
[Outro]
(I didn't know that I needed you)
Didn't know, didn't know
Didn't know, didn't know
Didn't know that I needed you
(I didn't know that I needed you)
Didn't know
Didn't know
Didn't know I needed you
