I Never Thought I’d See the Day Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You shed a shadow on my life
Shed a shadow on a love
Took the shelter out of my life
Took the shelter of a lie

I could see it in your restless eyes
The truth I was hiding
The truth you could not disguise

[Chorus 1]
But I never thought I'd see the day
I knew I'd need a miracle to make you stay
I knew I needed a miracle
And I never thought I'd see the day

[Verse 2]
You put a shadow on a love
Took a shelter of a lie
Took the shelter out of my life

[Chorus 2]
I wish you could shelter me
Shelter me now
I need a miracle
And I never thought I'd see the day

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
