[Chorus]
And if I had my way
There would be no tomorrow
Just yesterday
When I thought I knew you
And if I had my way
There'd be no more sorrow
And I wouldn’t be
So broken up and blue
[Verse 1]
Can a man ever plan for what he'll suffer?
Can a heart ever practice feeling down?
Can a man just pretend he doesn't love her
When a woman tries to put him in the ground?
[Chorus]
And if I had my way
There would be no tomorrow
Just yesterday
When I thought I knew you
And if I had my way
There’d be no more sorrow
And I wouldn't be
So broken up and blue
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Did your heart tell your mind to up and leave me?
Or was it just the other way around?
When I held you at night, were you just dreaming
Of a way to lose the love that we had found?
[Chorus]
And if I had my way
There would be no tomorrow
Just yesterday
When I thought I knew you
And if I had my way
There'd be no more sorrow
And I wouldn't be
So broken up and blue
I wouldn't be
So broken up and blue
