[Verse 1]
I say, is it because
you don’t want time with me?
He said, I told you
got stuff bothering me
And I just want
to be with the boys right now
I heard that line
and it hit me down
[Pre-Chorus]
I was standing there
trying not to break
You were halfway gone
even while you stayed
[Chorus]
If I knew, I would’ve walked away
(I would’ve walked away)
If I knew, I would’ve walked away
(away, away)
You left me there in the dark
You left me there in the dark
If I knew, I would’ve walked away
(I would’ve walked away)
[Verse 2]
I said it slow
like I could change the frame
You kept your eyes down
and called it pain
But I needed more
than a bench and a wait
Needed one sure word
before it got too late
[Pre-Chorus]
I was standing there
trying not to break
You were halfway gone
even while you stayed
[Chorus]
If I knew, I would’ve walked away
(I would’ve walked away)
If I knew, I would’ve walked away
(away, away)
You left me there in the dark
You left me there in the dark
If I knew, I would’ve walked away
(I would’ve walked away)
[Bridge]
Tell me why you let me
hold the whole blame?
Tell me why I’m the one
carrying the weight?
I wanted your truth
I wanted your hand
But you gave me silence
and called that a plan
[Final Chorus]
If I knew, I would’ve walked away
(I would’ve walked away)
If I knew, I would’ve walked away
(away, away)
You left me there in the dark
You left me there in the dark
If I knew, I would’ve walked away
(I would’ve walked away)
