I Should Have Known

Thinking ’bout the things I didn’t do
Thinking ’bout the times I didn’t say I love you
Thinking ’bout the memories I’m holding now mean more to me
And how I'd do things differently if only I had known
Oh

But you never really know till it’s gone
Till time, play this final song
You never really understand till you lose what you once had
You never really take the moments for what they're worth
Appreciate and put her first
I’m sorry I let you go
I should have known
I should have known

Pride in me, apologies too late
Paid the price the moment you walked away
Only left with only this, should or could or never did and now
I’m only left with this
Oh

You never really know till it’s gone
Till time, play this final song
You never really understand till you lose what you once had
You never really take the moments for what they're worth
Appreciate and put her first
I’m sorry I let you go

I should have known that you were slipping through my hands
Known that you were everything I had
Known that in a blink of an eye
I'd lose the best thing in my life
And I know why

You never really know till it’s gone
Till time, play this final song
You never really understand till you lose what you once had
You never really take the moments for what they're worth
Appreciate and put her first
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry I let you go
I should have known
I should have known
