I Didn't Know

I didn't know this love for you would be so deep
I didn't know that in my heart it would be for keeps
I didn't know that I would say,"Lord finally I,
have a feeling in my being that will not die"
I didn't know that you would be the one, and no one else
I didn't know that after you I would deny myself
I didn't know that only you, I would want to be with forever
I didn't know that I could think any storm we could weather
I didn't know with this maturity I could feel so young, so free
I didn't know I would feel like melting into you everytime that you touched me
I didn't know that when I closed my eyes, there would be you and I
I didn't know that in my mind we'd be standing side by side
I didn't know that, to you, I'd finally want to say,"I Do"
I didn't know that for the rest of my life I'd want to be your"BOO"
Your booty call, your booty dance, your booty and your beauty
I didn't know I'd want to take care of you and it'd be a pleasure not a duty
I didn't know when we made love it would be good all the time, just like at first
I didn't know that to just one man I could write verse upon verse

You changed the way my heart beat
The way words to songs sound
You made me feel unplanted
Like my feet weren't on the ground
Sometimes I'm overwhelmed by these feelings
Sometimes I am elated
Sometimes I accept them as they are
Sometimes I contemplate it
I'm saying all this to say
I really love you so
And when our eyes first met,
That this would happen,

I DIDN'T KNOW
