How could I have known You were the one for me? How could I have known You were the air I breathe If I don't believe in love? How was I to know I couldn't live without Your arms around me? If you'd only come back now I'd not let you down again And how could you allow One little love you saw? How could I think If you'd only hold me close I'd not let you go again? Guess I coulda been A better man I should have held onto your coat But how could I've known? And now looking back Should have been on my knees But I can be cold Shoulda said "Stay with me Please don't leave me alone" And those other girls They never made me feel The way I do now Know that our love was real But I broke the deal And now... I'm out in the cold Baby come hold me close Please don't let me drown Woman I love the most My holy ghost Goddamn Guess I could have tried A little harder I see comfort in being alone How could I have known?
