All this time spent waiting for the storm
Stitching up the seams that had been torn
I don't know how you endure the pain 
If you feel the same 

I don't know what you've been dreamin' of
If your heart is haunted by our love
I don't know if you've tried movin' on
But I can't get past the way we left off

If I knew now 
What I knew then 
If I hadn't forgotten 
What we meant 
If I'd held on 
Through the hard times 
If I'd done what I needed to make things right 
I'd know love before I lost it 
If I hadn't forgotten

Tempted by the thrill of something new
Now I turn my lonely eyes on you
Promised you that we could have it all
You trusted me and I let you fall

If I knew now 
What I knew then 
If I hadn't forgotten 
What we meant 
If I'd held on 
Through the hard times 
If I'd done what I needed to make things right 
I'd know love before I lost it 
If I hadn't forgotten

I don't like making promises
If I'm not sure I can keep them
No I don't like making promises
If I'm not sure I can keep them

If I knew now
What I knew then
If I knew now
What I knew then
Then I'd know love before I lost it
I'd know love before I lost it
I'd know love before I lost it
If I hadn't forgotten
