I never knew

If I could believe in you

I thought I was just a diversion

And you were killing time

My friends they told me

To leave you



They said you would never be mine

But you gave me your love

And you said I'm the one

You want the rest of

Your life



Now that I know

That you want me for me

I can be what you want

I can be what you need

Now that I know

That your love is for real

I can finally see

This is not make believe anymore



I was afraid

It was all a masquerade

That I was only a play thing

And you would leave me behind

But now I feel so secure

By your side

I can conquer the world

I gave you my love

And I know you're the one

I want for the rest

Of my life



Now that I know

That you want me for me

I can be what you want

I can be what you need

Now that I know

That your love is for real

I can finally see

This is not make believe anymore



( I really feel it )

So much love

( I really feel it )

So much joy

( I feel it )

Sweet sweet ecstasy

'Cause you opened my eyes

And I realize

Your love is for real



Now that I know

That you want me for me

I cant be what you want

I can be what you need

Now that I know

That your love is for real

I can finally see

This is not make believe anymore
