What I Know Now

If I’ve lived once then I’ve lived twice

I must’ve seen the sun a-rising at least

A hundred thousand times before

And when I wish upon a star I

wish that I could fly that far but

Wishes only leave you wanting more

Think of all the hearts I could’ve saved

That I broke on the way down

Would I put them back together

Where I could would I do better

If I had only known what I know now

Life may be a dance and you might

Get a second chance a time or two

But it’s up to you

If I could build a time machine well

I might change so many things but

If I pulled those strings would I regret

They say the grass is greener

And hindsight flies faster than the speed of sound

Oh the things I could’ve done

The races that I would’ve won

If I had only known what I know now

You know there’s a long way

Of getting where you’re going

And the wrong way

All the signs keep showing you

The right things to say

But you probably would’ve made

The same mistakes

Anytime I think about the

Lessons I could’ve done without

I see them all as treasures in my hands

It’s outta sight and outta mind

Go with it or get left behind

A riddle you may never understand

The road that goes to heaven goes to hell

It’s just the other way out of town

Call it a funny feeling

An old wound asking for a healing

If I had only known what I know now

Call it a funny feeling

A wound asking for a healing

If I had only known what I know now

If I had only known what I know now
