Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra) - official video

If I would have known

So I wrote this... its actually going to be a song I have a friend working on the music. Keep your ears out people. Hope lives.

Two years ago about mid november,

I was sitting on a picnic table outside of the bar
I wasn’t lookin for someone,
but the loneliness got me wonderin where you are
I reached out for a hand in the dark,
sent a message straight to your cell phone
you responded quite quickly,
said you couldn’t come you had the kids at home
if I would have known then,
that I’d be sitting here just tryin to catch my breath
maybe I wouldn’t have called you,
Perhaps I wouldn’t respond to your next steps,
About six months later,
I said the words you had waited to hear,
I told you I loved you,
Even though you knew loving was my greatest fear,
You held me so close,
You whispered that everything would be okay,
You made me believe you,
You said you’d love me forever if I’d just stay,
If I would have known then,
Just about how far that I would fall,
Maybe I wouldn’t have called you,
Perhaps I would have thrown away it all,
So about two years later,
I am sitting on the couch inside what used to be home,
I still aint lookin for someone
But the loneliness echos the sweet words that you spoke,
I shouldn’t wonder what happened,
You were supposed to just be wasting my time,
Til I found that someone,
I never wanted to let you say she’s mine,
If I would have known then,
How you would have taken my heart and ran,
Maybe I wouldn’t have called you,
Maybe I would still know how to stand,
But instead I listened,
I drank your words in as if they were wine
I got drunk on your promises,
Now I am only a simple waste of your time,
If I would have known then, Just how far I would fall,
I wouldn’t take back a day,
No I wouldn’t change a thing at all.
