If you only knew what it was like
Hoping that you see the light
And you always put up a fight
I get lost within your stare
When we breathe the same air
I see you everywhere
It's hard to let go when you're holding on
Waiting for a change that don't come
And they're playing the saddest song
I close my eyes wishing you were there
But you never appear
Girl, you're worth every tear
Oh, if you only knew
Oh, come on
Oh, if you only knew
Oh, if you only knew
Loving you made me strong
Leaving you can't be wrong
The saddest of my life
No promises, not tonight
Walk or run, catch a flight
Love can kill, I know I'm right
I'm here for you — can you hear me?
On a train, on this plane
Wanna kiss, not to cry
Every tear may be fear
Loving you made me strong
Leaving you can't be wrong
The saddest of my life
No promises, not tonight
Walk or run, catch a flight
Love can kill, I know I'm right
I'm here for you — can you hear me?
On a train, on this plane
Wanna kiss, not to cry
Every tear may be fear
Loving you made me strong
Leaving you can't be wrong
The saddest of my life
No promises, not 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
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew
