How I know Lyrics

How I know this is real I know

Cause it feels that way

I may come to a point

And then it's over

Over now we bowing out

Argument what's that about

Tell me now or ask me later

Let me just ask you a favor

Let me know what you really think

Stop trying to hide in your drink

I'm not even flowing like I normally do

I'm sitting here and just talking to you

Waiting for you to bring it up

Again you staring in your cup

If your answer is hard to find

We can skip all that and go with mine

First let's start with your weird behavior

How you lose everything I gave ya

Got some money from my tour

I gave you some and you wanted some more

Is that what this is really all about

I just want to hear it from your mouth

Before we keep going and get any deeper

I really thought that you was a keeper

But that just shows how much I know

And all my feelings just overflow

Things feel best when you're hand in hand

So why let go I don't understand

How we build it up nice and strong

Now here we are drinking to my song

Do what you want don't listen to me

And the whole time I just wanted you to be free

Never did I try to control you

I just wanted to hold you

And I wanted a heart to steal

Turns out it wasn't even real

How I know this is real I know

Cause it feels that way

I may come to a point

And then it's over

I think I'm a little smarter now

And we ain't talked in a while

I really miss the good old days

I guess we were both set in our ways

I remember when I saw you leave

Two days before Christmas eve

That would put it on the twenty second

Right before I finished my record

I've been doing a lot of thinking

Also been doing a lot less drinking

Coming to a really big conclusion

All this time I was using

Any excuse that I could find

To keep you off of my mind

But now I'm gonna accept the truth

I'm falling apart I'm needing you

How can I put things back together

Maybe I should just write a letter

The whole time I was blaming you

And never did what you wanted me to

You always wanted me to take you somewhere

Just to be together you didn't even care

That probably would of done a lot of good

If I could take it back then I really would

Now I know it's much too late

Always love and never hate

I know I wasted a lot of your time

Wasn't satisfied when you was mine

But that's what I have to live with now

Wish somebody could come and show me how

To move on and get over this pain

So until then I'll just explain

How I know this is real I know

Cause it feels that way

I may come to a point

And then it's over

Finally now I'm here with you

I can't imagine what you been through

I know this not gonna change anything

But I'm here now and I'm ready to sing

I always knew you to be really strong

And never thought you'd become a song

All these years done came and went

And I hope you got the flowers I sent

I don't really know what else to say

It's raining and it's still a beautiful day

I shoulda came here a long time ago

But after the funeral I just didn't know

How I would feel and how I'd react

Knowing I'd never have you back

So I hope you see me wave

As I'm kneeling at your grave

Now I know this is real

But I can't believe it

I have come to this point

And now it's over
