"How Were We To Know" lyrics

"How Were We To Know"

I won't think about it
'Cause I don't know how to handle this shit
Yeah we both could have done better
But come on, come on

How were we to know?
How were we to grow?
We gave it all we had
So come on, don't feel bad
'Cause how were we to know?

Please don't
Come round to my place
'Cause I don't
Want you to see me like this
We know
It ended in disaster
But we tried
We tried

But how were we to know?
How were we to grow?
We gave it all we had
So come on, don't feel bad
See, how were we to know?
How were we to know?

We could've done better but sooner or later
We stopped all love letters and things that we dreaded
Were standing in front of us, staring us dead in the eye
We should have been patient but who the hell's got any time
To be patient when it's just a matter of time, of time

But how were we to know?
How were we to grow?
We gave it all we had
So come on, don't feel bad
'Cause how were we to know?
