[Verse 1: Dionne Warwick & Bobby Smith, Bobby Smith]
Ever since I met you
Seems I can't forget you
The thought of you
Keeps running through the back of my mind
Every time I'm near ya
I get that urge to feel ya
Just touching you
And loving you makes everything right
(Tell me how you feel, baby)
[Chorus: Dionne Warwick & The Spinners, Bobby Smith, Dionne Warwick]
I never knew love before (Oh, no)
Then came you, you
Then came you
I never knew love before
Then came you
Then came you
You
[Verse 2: Dionne Warwick & Bobby Smith, Bobby Smith, Dionne Warwick]
Now that I have found ya
How did I live without ya?
(I don't know, baby)
It's plain to see
You're all I need to satisfy me
I'm so darned proud of ya
I wanna sing about ya
(Sing it, sing it, sing it, baby)
All I know
You made love grow
By touching my hand
Oh, oh
[Chorus: Dionne Warwick & The Spinners, Dionne Warwick]
I never knew love before
Then came you (You)
Then came you, ooh
I never knew love before
Then came you (Ooh)
Then came you
Hey, then came you
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus: Dionne Warwick & The Spinners, Bobby Smith, Dionne Warwick]
Whoa-oh-oh
I never knew love before
Then came you
Then came you
I never knew love before
Then came you, you
Then came you
[Outro: Dionne Warwick & The Spinners, Dionne Warwick, Bobby Smith]
Whoa-oh-oh
I never knew love before
(They told me all about you)
Then came you (And uh, I got to love you)
Then came you (Then came you) (You, you)
I never knew love before, hey
Then came you
(With your loving touch) (You, you, you, you, you, you)
Then came you (Yeah) (Hey, hey)
You know that I never knew love before
(I got to hand it to you, baby) (Oh)
Then came you (Then came you)
(Got the power of love)
Then came you (Then came you)
(Got the power of love, baby)
I never knew love before
Then came you
(I wanna tell you that your lovin', ha, I gotta get it)
Then came you
(Hey, hey, yeah)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) I never knew love before
Then came you (Oh baby)
Then came you
(I got your lovin', honey)
I never knew love before
(I'm a contented man)
Then came you
('Cause you're sweeter, sweeter, sweeter, sweeter, sweeter)
Then came you
(Hey, hey, baby) (You, you, you, you, you)
You know that I never knew love before (Oh)
