If I Had Only Known

If I had only known

It was our last walk in the rain

I'd keep you out for hours in the storm

I would hold your hand

Like a lifeline to my heart

Underneath the thunder we'd be warm

If I had only known

It was our last walk in the rain



If I had only known

I'd never hear your voice again

I'd memorize each thing you ever said

And on those lonely nights

I could think of them once more

And keep your words alive inside my head

If I had only known

I'd never hear your voice again



You were the treasure in my hand

You were the one who always stood beside me

So unaware I foolishly believed

That you would always be there

And then there came a day when I

Turned my head, and you slipped away.



If I had only known

It was my last night by your side

I pray a miracle to stop the dawn

And when you smiled at me

I would look into your eyes

And make sure you know my love for you

Goes on and on...

If I had only known.

If I had only known.

The love I would have shown,

If I had only known.
