[Verse 1]
Yeah, I've tried just about everything
Riches and fame, a lot of friends, a lot of luxury
Underneath it all, I've always felt so incomplete
I just want someone to really love and care for me
I do all I can to make people happy
But happiness in return is something I'll never see
Don't know where I'm going wrong trying to find what I need
So I'm crying, Lord, please help me, yeah
[Chorus]
When I gave Him my love (My love)
His love came back to me
He never ran with my affections
His love is guaranteed (Yeah)
Didn't know unconditional love (Didn't know, I didn't know)
Could ever really be found (Found)
That couldn't happen to somebody like me
I didn't know what I know now
[Verse 2]
Well, since I found this love
I don't try to please nobody else
Cause in Him, I've found all I ever need
And He loves me just for me, Brandy
If you don't know Him, you should give Him a chance
And He'll give you the best love you've ever had
You'll love Him like I do, I don't have a doubt
Listen while I tell you what I'm talking 'bout, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
When I gave Him my love (My love)
His love came back to me (To me)
He never ran with my affections (No, no)
His love is guaranteed (Guaranteed)
Didn't know unconditional love (Oh)
Could ever really be found (Be found)
That couldn't happen to somebody like me (Oh yes, it did)
I didn't know what I know now
[Bridge]
Sometimes, it seems as though life ain't really fair at all
When the ones you try to love don't love you back, oh
But when you've found the love that I have found from God above
It erases all the pain of your past
I'm trying to tell you
[Chorus]
When I gave Him my love (Oh, oh)
His love came back to me (Back to me)
He never ran with my affections (No, no)
His love is guaranteed (No, no, no, no)
Didn't know unconditional love (I didn't know, I didn't know, yeah)
Could ever really be found (Oh, oh)
That couldn't happen to somebody like me (Oh, woo)
I didn't know what I know now (When I gave Him)
When I gave Him my love (All my love)
His love came back to me
He never ran with my affections (He didn't run away with my love)
His love is guaranteed (Woah, woah)
Didn't know unconditional love (Didn't know)
Could ever really be found (Woah, yeah)
That couldn't happen to somebody like me (Woo, ooh)
I didn't know what I know now (No, I didn't know, I didn't know)
When I gave Him my love (I didn't know, I didn't know)
His love came back to me (Didn't know, I didn't know)
He never ran with my affections (I didn't know, I didn't know)
His love is guaranteed (Didn't know, I didn't know)
Didn't know unconditional love (No, I didn't know, I didn't know)
Could ever really be found
That couldn't happen to somebody like me
I didn't know what I know now
