What I Didn't Know Lyrics

I jumped to conclusions, acted on impulse

Tore down our world with a single choice

Now I'm standing in the rubble of what we built

Realizing my actions were based on guilt

If I'd only asked, if I'd only waited

Maybe this love wouldn't be so complicated

But I let my fears and doubts take control

Now what I didn't know has taken its toll

What I didn't know has left me alone

Questions unanswered, seeds of doubt sown

I acted too fast, didn't see the whole picture

Now regret's the only thing that lingers

Oh, what I didn't know broke us in two

The missing pieces, if only I knew

Now I'm left wondering what could have been

If I'd known then what I know now, my friend

The truth came too late, like a cruel joke

Showing me the reality of what I broke

All those assumptions, they led me astray

Now I'd give anything to undo that day

How do you fix a mistake you can't take back?

When the truth reveals what you thought you lacked

I'm drowning in the irony of it all

Wishing I could answer that fateful call

What I didn't know has left me alone

Questions unanswered, seeds of doubt sown

I acted too fast, didn't see the whole picture

Now regret's the only thing that lingers

Oh, what I didn't know broke us in two

The missing pieces, if only I knew

Now I'm left wondering what could have been

If I'd known then what I know now, my friend

What I didn't know has left me alone

Questions unanswered, seeds of doubt sown

I acted too fast, didn't see the whole picture

Now regret's the only thing that lingers

Oh, what I didn't know broke us in two

The missing pieces, if only I knew

Now I'm left wondering what could have been

If I'd known then what I know now, my friend
