Lady A If I Knew Then Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The first time that I saw you, lookin' like you did
We were young, we were restless, just two clueless kids
But if I knew then, what I know now
I'd fall in love

[Verse 2]
On a bus in Chicago, three rows to the left
You know my heart was racin' for you, but we never even met
If I knew then, what I know now
I'd fall in love

[Chorus]
'Cause love only comes, once in a while
And knocks on your door, and throws you a smile
It takes every breath, leaves every scar
Speaks to your soul, and sings to your heart
But if I knew then, what I know now
I'd fall in love

[Verse 2]
On a summer night in August, back seat of my car
'Stead of tryin' to get to know you, I took it way too far
But if I knew then, what I know now I'd fall in love

[Chorus]
Whoa, 'cause love only comes, once in a while
And knocks on your door, and throws you a smile
It takes every breath, leaves every scar
Speaks to your soul, and sings to your heart
But if I knew then, what I know now
I'd fall in love

[Bridge]
Whoa, I used up a lot of chances
I can't get them back
But if again it comes crawlin', I'm gonna make it last

[Chorus]
'Cause love only comes, once in a while
And knocks on your door, and throws you a smile
It takes every breath, leaves every scar
Speaks to your soul, and sings to your heart
But if I knew then, what I know now

[Outro]
Whoa, if I knew then, what I know now
I'd fall in... love
