What I Never Knew I Always Wanted
Carrie Underwood


Never was the kind to think about dressing in white
Wasn't waiting on a prince to come riding into my life
Thought I was happy on my own
'Til you came and proved me wrong

I finally found
What I never knew I always wanted
I couldn't see
I was blind 'til my eyes were opened
I didn't know there was a hole
Something missing in my soul
'Til you filled it up
With your love, yeah

(Yeah, yeah)

Never pictured myself singing lullabies
Sitting in a rocking chair in the middle of the night
In the quiet, in the dark
You're stealing every bit of my heart with your daddy's eyes
What a sweet surprise

And now I'm holdin'
What I never knew I always wanted
I couldn't see
I was blind 'til my eyes were opened
I didn't know there was a hole
Something missing in my soul
'Til you filled it up
Oh, with your love

Life has a way of showing you just what you need
And who you were made to be, yeah

I finally found
What I never knew I always wanted
I couldn't see
I was blind 'til my eyes were opened
I didn't know there was a hole
Something missing in my soul
'Til you filled it up
With your love
Yeah, you filled it up
With your love, yeah

(Yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah)
I never was the kind to think about dressing in white
I never pictured myself singing lullabies
