How Could I Have Known

How could I have known
you were the one for me
How could I known
you were the air I breathe
If I don't believe in love

How was I to know
I couldn't live without
your arms around me
You only come back now
and I let you down again

And how could you allow
allow me to love you so
How cruel a thing
If you only hold me close
I'd not let you go again

Guess I could have been
A better man
I should have hold onto your coat
But how could I've know

And now looking back
Should have been on my knees
But I can be cold
Should have said "stay with me"
"please don't leave me alone"

And those other girls
they never made feel
The way I do now
Know that our love was real
But I broke the deal
And now

I'm out in the the cold
Baby come home be close
Please don't let me drown
Know that I love the most about holy ghost guy get?

Guess I could have tried
A little harder
I seek comfort in being alone
How could I have known
