If I Knew How

Oh baby, you look happy

I'm glad he made you

Feel the way I never did

And God, I would've changed

If it meant I'd get to see you like this

But it looks like you're doing just fine

I hate that I still care

I hate that you don't

I would've loved you better if I knew how

Maybe you'd still be here now

I wanted forever, but I messed it up

And now you've stopped calling it love

You wear the dress I never saw you in

And I wonder if he knows how lucky he's been

He gets the version of you

I only ever got glimpses of

I wanted to be better

But I was late

You gave me every chance to love you right

And i gave you every reason to leave

I would've loved you better if I knew how

Maybe you'd still be here now

I wanted forever, but I messed it up

And now you've stopped calling it love

I would've loved you better if I knew how

Maybe you'd still be here now

I wanted forever, but I messed it up

And now you've stopped calling it love
