If I'd Only Known

If I'd Only Known

If I'd only known 

That lie would end this way 

I would have done everything to correct all wrongs

If I'd only known 

That this is the edge of patience

I would have done everything 

Everything to make my mistakes go and this feeling fade away 

From the night I hit you and insulted you 

To the night when I left you at the end of the road 

If I'd only known 

That life would have brought me down 

To this where everything seems to fall apart 

Even you are now just a mere memory 

If I'd only known 

That you would be the last good thing god gave me 

I would have made sure that every moment we spent 

Lasted a lifetime

Only if I had not been corrupted 

With suspicion and rage 

I would have kept you near me 

And never would I have treated you like an animal 

If I'd only known 

That this would be the last we would meet 

I would have tried to stop time 

So that I could have spent the entire time looking at you 

Mesmerised 

If I'd only known that life would never be fair 

I would have kept the faith in it 

Believing that only if you were here with me 

I would have not been alone in this storm 

If I'd only known 

That after this there would have been no us 

I would have wooed you all over again 

Just to stay with the love we had, the moments we shared 

And us being together 

And now life has changed 

And the storm has taken its toll 

Where I am it's latest victim

If only I'd known 

I would have never missed you like this
