Reba McEntire
If I Had Only Known
[Verse 1]
If I had only known
It was the last walk in the rain
I'd keep you out for hours in the storm
I would hold your hand
Like a lifeline to my heart
Underneath the thunder, we'd be warm
If I had only known
It was our last walk in the rain

[Verse 2]
If I had only known
I'd never hear your voice again
I'd memorize each thing you ever said
And on those lonely nights
I could think of them once more
And keep your words alive inside my head
If I had only known
I'd never hear your voice again

[Bridge]
You were the treasure in my hand
You were the one who always stood beside me
So unaware
I foolishly believed that you would always be there
But then there came a day and I turned my head
And you slipped away
[Verse 3]
If I had only known
It was my last night by your side
I'd pray a miracle would stop the dawn
And when you'd smile at me
I would look into your eyes
And make sure you know my love
For you goes on and on
If I had only known
If I had only known
Oh, the love I would've shown
If I had only known
