Tylan Greenstein - If I Had Known lyrics

If I had known, I would have not been so hard If I had known, I would have fixed up the car If I had known, I would have come to the door When you came in from the store Never said that you were wrong If I had known that you'd be gone If I had known, our life would have been just like A magic show where birds appear and then fly Like the old days, in all the films when they'd kiss And you'd say 'Love's not like this' I would have held you for so long If I had known that you'd be gone I'm not one to hang on to regret But I can't stand that there are moments I forget And I don't envy other people's lives But now I envy that guy Who had you there by my side If I had known, I would have walked right back in When things got rough Seemed so important to win I left you there and went out drinking all night Kept up my end of the fight I thought that that made me strong If I had known that you'd be gone No regrets ‘Cause there are things that you can't plan But yeah, I guess I could have been a better man Now I don't envy other people as a rule But now I envy that fool Who had you there in my hands If I had known, I would've taken the time Put down the phone Opened that bottle of wine We bought in France and saved for some perfect day And then the time slipped away The perfect day has come and gone If I had known that you'd be gone (I could have held you for so long if I had known)
