If You Only Knew · letra

So here you are again Standing at my door You know I'd understand Well that's what friends are for
What's he done this time What did he say To make you so darn mad That you're running away Now you say you want to be like me Independent and free
But if you only knew What a single girl goes through The long working days and the lonley nights The empty I love yous Oh if you only knew what it's like to be alone You'd put your anger down Turn around and go back home
My life looks good to you I'm always in control No one to answer to But no one there to hold You see in my eyes you are the lucky one With loving arms that you can lean upon I'd give anything I could to say What you're throwing away
Cause if you only knew What a single girl goes through The long working days and the lonley nights The empty I love yous Oh if you only knew what it's like to be alone You'd put your anger down Turn around and go back home
I know it's hard to face that love ain't perfect everyday But I know a hundred girls who would gladly take your place
So if you only knew What a single girl goes through The long working days and the lonley nights The empty I love yous Oh if you only knew what it's like to be alone You'd put your anger down Turn around and go back home
You'd put your anger down Turn around and go back home If you only knew
