If I only knew what I know |
|
I would not have done what I did. |
|
You said all along I was wrong |
|
But I went and did it anyway. Yes, I went |
|
and did it anyway. |
|
But if only... (you should listen) |
|
But if only... (stop and think) |
|
I was in control (so I thought) |
|
With a foolproof plan - what a joke! |
|
Proving what a fool I can be |
|
As it all exploded in my face. |
|
Whatever made me do it anyway? |
|
But if only... (time's a-wasting) |
|
But if only... (Just move on) |
|
But if only... (No use chasing) |
|
But if only... (What is gone) |
|
Oh, you sentimental fool, |
|
You're finding out life can be cruel, |
|
You cannot bend the rules. |
|
Oh, you sentimental fool, |
|
You find some coal and think that you'll |
|
Create a precious jewel. |
|
You sentimental fool! |
|
But if only... (something ventured) |
|
But if only... (nothing gained) |
|
But if only... (You were captured) |
|
But if only... (By your game) |
|
Oh, you temperamental fool, |
|
You've got to keep your engine cool - |
|
You're burning too much fuel. |
|
Oh, you temperamental fool |
|
You think you'll find somebody who'll |
|
Be warm when you are cool. |
|
You temperamental fool! |
|
Picking myself up off the ground |
|
Everybody knows how that feels! |
|
To be wrong again, as I know I will |
|
It really doesn't matter anyway |
|
But if only... (time's a wasting) |
|
But if only... (just move on) |
|
But if only... (no use chasing) |
|
But if only... (what is gone) |
|
But if only... (catching rainbows) |
|
(can't be done) |
|
But if only... (fleeting haloes) |
|
(of the sun) |
