Never saw the morning till I stayed up all night
  Never saw the sunshine till I turned out the light
  Never saw my home town till I stayed away too long
  I never heard the melody till I needed the song
    Never saw the white line till I was leavin' you behind
  Never knew I needed you till I was caught up in a bind
  And I never spoke I love you till I cursed you in vain
  Never felt my heart strings until I nearly went insane
    Never saw the East coast until I moved to the West
  I never saw the moonlight till it shone off your breast
  And I never saw your heart till someone tried to steal it away
  Never saw your tears till they rolled down your face
    I never saw the morning till I stayed up all night
  Never saw the sunshine till you turned out the light
  Never saw my home town till I stayed away too long
  I never heard the melody till I needed the song
