If You Only Knew Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, if you knew that people tend to move in patterns
Then maybe you could see why it's so good that I'm with you
But then, that really doesn't matter
'Cause I want out and you want out
And every time I close my eyes, you look like someone else
And lately I'm just not myself

[Verse 2]
Would you agree that life's not really what you make it
But rather what is made?
And though I see something special in your eyes, they seem so vacant
And I am afraid that I just can't take it that much longer
But I really don't know why
Baby, let your conscience die

[Chorus]
Oh, I can see everything coming down the—
If you only knew I had everything I wanted
If you only knew I have everything I need, yeah
If you only knew I need everything I've got
Then you'd know all I want is you

[Verse 3]
So take your oath... oh, I don't want it, you can keep it
Play it for the world
But keep it mind that you can never learn my secrets
'Cause you're just a little girl
Oh, I've got problems, you've got problems And we've got problems, too
But I can't get away from you
[Verse 4]
Oh, if you knew that there's an end to every story
Then there'd be nothing left to say
And I think you do, but you stop reading every time the plot gets boring
And pick it up another day
Oh, there's no sense in telling you that I have got my doubts
'Cause that's what love is all about

[Chorus]
But if you only knew that I don't know what I've got, yeah
If you only knew that I don't know what to do
If you only knew I want everything I can't have
Then you'd know all I want is you

[Bridge]
And if I knew that things wouldn't change
And if I knew that it sounds so strange
To hear everything that I always say
In words so sweet and true
Oh if I only knew
Then I would run away from you

[Chorus]
But if you only knew I have all I've ever wanted
If you only knew I have everything I need, yeah
If you only knew I have all I've ever wanted
Then you'd know all I need is you
