If You Knew
There was no light on the shore
But it's never as simple as that
And I couldn't wait anymore
I'm sure it wasn't my fault
You had somewhere to go
But no part of you lingered at all
I thought maybe if you knew
Like I never imagined you do
If I only knew what to say
But can you respect anybody
Who needs you that way?
You are bound to forget
These things tend to work themselves out
But how many times have I slipped?
Like if I went out on a limb
Could you show on my skin
Maybe all of the magic unfolds
But can you convince anybody
To love what they don't?
Hey, nothing will change if you leave it to fate
Oh, can I change it back now
Hey, no one can blame you for trying
But that won't stop you, that won't stop you
I thought maybe if you knew
Like I never imagined you do
If I only knew what to say
But can you respect anybody
Who needs you that way?
But it's never as simple as that
And I couldn't wait anymore
I'm sure it wasn't my fault
You had somewhere to go
But no part of you lingered at all
I thought maybe if you knew
Like I never imagined you do
If I only knew what to say
But can you respect anybody
Who needs you that way?
You are bound to forget
These things tend to work themselves out
But how many times have I slipped?
Like if I went out on a limb
Could you show on my skin
Maybe all of the magic unfolds
But can you convince anybody
To love what they don't?
Hey, nothing will change if you leave it to fate
Oh, can I change it back now
Hey, no one can blame you for trying
But that won't stop you, that won't stop you
I thought maybe if you knew
Like I never imagined you do
If I only knew what to say
But can you respect anybody
Who needs you that way?
