If I Knew Then (John Denver Ain't Lou Reed)
You never loved the other side of me
You prayed away my one true self
All the twists and turns I hide in me
Spun you 'round like a carousel
If I knew then what I know now
He'd be a dead man
If I knew then what I know now
And not the only one
I see the lovers walk down the street
Hand in hand let's just be friends
Only a fool believes in a non-compete
His heart in her box of odds and ends
If I knew then what I know now
I'd tell him to his face
What I learned then
Another man will steal his place
I know the songs you shared are not the same as ours
John Denver ain't Lou Reed
Sharp words can make us bleed
Each round takes a part of me
You make a place and turn your life away
Conclude it might be good for you
But then the rainbow it fades away
'Til all that's left are grays and blue
When the morning light ... reignites the fight
The end is drawing near
Like a poison tip upon a spear
Two aging mutineers
And so I'm on my own again
If I knew then, what I know now
He'd be a dead man
If I knew then, what I know now
And not the only one
If I knew then what I know now
Sad endings come so fast
And the pain it ever lasts
But since you called to ask
I'll be there later tonight
You prayed away my one true self
All the twists and turns I hide in me
Spun you 'round like a carousel
If I knew then what I know now
He'd be a dead man
If I knew then what I know now
And not the only one
I see the lovers walk down the street
Hand in hand let's just be friends
Only a fool believes in a non-compete
His heart in her box of odds and ends
If I knew then what I know now
I'd tell him to his face
What I learned then
Another man will steal his place
I know the songs you shared are not the same as ours
John Denver ain't Lou Reed
Sharp words can make us bleed
Each round takes a part of me
You make a place and turn your life away
Conclude it might be good for you
But then the rainbow it fades away
'Til all that's left are grays and blue
When the morning light ... reignites the fight
The end is drawing near
Like a poison tip upon a spear
Two aging mutineers
And so I'm on my own again
If I knew then, what I know now
He'd be a dead man
If I knew then, what I know now
And not the only one
If I knew then what I know now
Sad endings come so fast
And the pain it ever lasts
But since you called to ask
I'll be there later tonight
