If only you'd known...You could have come back with
bunches of flowers in your hands
Or was it a fistful of your lover's hair?
If only you had known
But you were thrown
onto the pyre of your easy chair
In a room full of broken glass everywhere
If only you had known...
And now you've shown
You couldn't ask for the lion's share anyway
No matter what all the people around you say
You'll just avert this tragedy some other day
Once he's collected all you could possibly pay
And if you had known
You could have flown
