John Smith: Pocahontas...
Pocahontas: ...I'm so sorry...
JS: --For what, this? I've gotten out of worse scrapes than this... Can't think of any right now, but--
P: --It would've been better if we'd never met, none of this would've happened!
JS: Pocahontas, look at me: I'd rather die tomorrow, then live a hundred years without knowing you.
[John Smith]
If I never knew you
If I never felt this love
I would have no inkling of
How precious life can be
If I never held you
I would never have a clue
How at last I'd find in you
The missing part of me
In this world so full of fear
Full of rage and lies
I can see the truth so clear
In your eyes
So dry your eyes
And I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost forever
If I never knew you
[Pocahontas]
I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we'd make the whole world bright
I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong
All they'd leave us were these whispers in the night
But still my heart is saying we were right
[Pocahontas/
(John Smith)]
For if I never knew you
(There's no moment I regret)
If I never knew this love
(Since the moment that we met)
I would have no inkling of
(If our time has gone too fast)
How precious life can be
(I've lived at last)
Nakoma: {outside} Pocahontas--
Pocahontas: I can't leave you...
John Smith: You never will; no matter what happens to me, I'll always be with you, forever.
[John Smith]
And I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Empty as the sky
[Pocahontas]
Never knowing why
[Both]
Lost forever
If I never knew you
