"What I Know Now" lyrics

If my heart had an ass, I'd kick it
If she hadn't broken it, I'd fix it
If I had spent just a little time listening
I wouldn't be wondering why

My head's still sitting here spinning
From all of this Jack I'm sipping
And maybe it'd be a little bit different
If I could go back in time

And tell my stupid self that she don't change her mind
Turn around, knowing what I know now

Her car would've never left my drive
She'd never got ten miles down the road
That girl'd never said goodbye
How was I supposed to know?
I'd be spending too much time in this dive
Just trying to let her go
Should've chased her down that road, no doubt
'Cause it'd be me and her somewhere, sun going down
Not me here knowing what I know now
What I know now

She meant what she meant when she said
She wasn't coming back once she left
I heard her say something 'bout regret
How that's what I'd be doing

Wish I could just go back and listen to myself
I wouldn't be missing her bad, putting myself through hell

Her car would've never left my drive
She'd never got ten miles down the road
That girl'd never said goodbye
How was I supposed to know?
I'd be spending too much time in this dive
Just trying to let her go
Should've chased her down that road, no doubt
'Cause it'd be me and her somewhere, sun going down
Not me here knowing what I know now
What I know now

Her car would've never left my drive
She'd never got ten miles down the road
That girl'd never said goodbye
How was I supposed to know?
I'd be spending too much time in this dive
Just trying to let her go
Should've chased her down that road, no doubt
'Cause it'd be me and her somewhere, sun going down
Not me here knowing what I know now
What I know now
