As If I Had To Know It All

[Verse 1] You asked me, almost laughing, like it was a question with no safe answer: Would you still stay if every ending wasn’t hiding, if it lived right there on the first page, thin ink in the margins, a language only regret can read? [Chorus] As if I had to know things even before they happened Every rise, every fault line Every call I shouldn’t have answered As if I saw the way we’d bend, then break Would I still lean in, let it pull me under? If I had to know it all I’d still choose you Yeah, I’d still choose you [Verse 2] All the small wars in the kitchen that never knew who won Your jacket breathing on the chair like you were still here Time collapsing into moments replaying in my head like an old home movie I can’t stop watching [Chorus] As if I had to know things even before they happened Every crack in the glass Every promise I let rust If I felt the silence stretch too long heard your key not turn in the lock again If I had to know it all I’d still choose you I’d still choose you [Bridge] Maybe love is just signing your name under the whole forecast Blue skies and sirens Every stay Every this is goodbye [Final Chorus] As if I had to know things even before they happened Every quiet goodbye down the hallway If I watched you stop calling saw your future written with someone else If I had to know it all I’d still choose you Yeah I’d still choose you
