If I Had Known
Clifford Ward · Other Songs - Clifford Ward
I would have never let you go
But there you were, still talkin' of the first time
And how was I to know?
No tears for you, no sense of feeling cheated
But only life, you taught me how to live
If only I could have changed places with you
God knows I would.
INSTRUMENTAL
One thing I know, our love will live forever
And one day I'll be with you again
Just as April blossom lasts forever
Goodbye my love till then.
Just as April blossom lasts forever
Goodbye my love till then.
