What I Didn't Know Lyrics

We drove up the parkway to visit your sister

Didn't live far but you said you really missed her

And there wasn't a thing I wouldn't do

To spend that afternoon with you

We spoke in music, played your favorite songs

Let down your guard, you didn't hear alarms

Your eyes were glowing, your laughter free

The time was slowing, it was hard to breathe

Shrug your shoulders, pick up ya phone

Did I miss the moment? Eyes on the road

But each touch was magic, was it all dream?

Sparks were static electricity

Just come back

Please I need you

All it takes

Is just one redo

'Cause I felt so alone

And I didn't know

What I didn't know

No I didn't know

You wanted me there

But I didn't show

Brushed it off just a little too quickly

Speaking soft now, the silence kills me

But time is tricky, it mends us up

We share our breakfast, our lunch, our trust

Then on my birthday, you showed up surprise

Woke up ecstatic, I guess my face lied

'Cause you weren't happy, you let me know it

I fucked up badly, think I went and broke it

Just come home

Please I love you

Everything reminds me of you

And it was time to grow

But I didn't know

What I didn't know

No I didn't know

You wanted me then

But I didn't show

Then time kept speeding

You found a stand in

Let's call it even

Girl I can't stand this

We were so romantic

With the world against us

But I blocked you out too

When I put my fence up

It was snowing, freezing

Staring past the bare trees

Your birthday's here soon

The thought just dares me

And you took that risk too

Think "Should I go?"

I just call and miss you

You turned off your phone

And I didn't know

What I didn't know

You wanted me there

But I didn't show

(I wish I went there

And made you smile)

No I didn't know

(I wish I showed up

Must have lost my mind boo)

What I didn't know

(You are so special

Wanna be beside you)

You wanted me there

(Just come back home girl

Let me remind you)

But I didn't show
