If I Knew

I should not have told the walls what you did.

I didn't hesitate a second before it slipped my lips.

And my heart, it melted to its knees

when I knew what you had done to me.

But if I knew,

if I knew,

if I knew this would be the song,

I would have never sung along.

I should have told my mother what I did.

She loves me way too much to let me get away with it.

But my heart melted to my feet

when I knew that you were done with me.

If I knew,

if I knew,

if I knew this would be the song,

I would have never sung along.

And my heart melted off my sleeve

when I knew that you were done with me.

But if I knew,

if I knew,

if I knew this would be the song,

I would have never, never sung along, never sung along.

If I knew this would be the song,

I would have never sung along.
