If Only You Knew
Let me tell you dear,
I know I said it's just a story
But the truth is
I write words to fumble crap
Just to help me get by
It wasn't my intention to leave
you out in the cold
I wrote this all down and I put it in a song
Cause I found that my words fail me
When I need them most
I've got away with words
But I'm not sure it's the good kind
Cause I let them get away from me
And I just hope that you'll find
That your name is hidden somewhere
Deep between most of them
I once had a mind to let this run its course
But the wind and the rain had their way with us
Cause something deep inside me said I had to learn the hard way
I'm scared of being alone, but I'm scared to look you in the eyes
And ask you if you'd like to dance with me
Because I'll make a fool of myself
These words are nothing more than pebbles thrown
In desperation, that's your window pane
Just hoping that the (winded sound?)
will help you sleep tonight
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
And if only you knew
If only you knew
I know I said it's just a story
But the truth is
I write words to fumble crap
Just to help me get by
It wasn't my intention to leave
you out in the cold
I wrote this all down and I put it in a song
Cause I found that my words fail me
When I need them most
I've got away with words
But I'm not sure it's the good kind
Cause I let them get away from me
And I just hope that you'll find
That your name is hidden somewhere
Deep between most of them
I once had a mind to let this run its course
But the wind and the rain had their way with us
Cause something deep inside me said I had to learn the hard way
I'm scared of being alone, but I'm scared to look you in the eyes
And ask you if you'd like to dance with me
Because I'll make a fool of myself
These words are nothing more than pebbles thrown
In desperation, that's your window pane
Just hoping that the (winded sound?)
will help you sleep tonight
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
And if only you knew
If only you knew
