If I Knew Then Songtext
von Backstreet Boys

Life should be like a game of cards
You make a mistake
Shuffle the deck and start over
It should be just like driving in your car
Get lost and your navigation system
Gets you closer

But there ain′t no handbook
You're on your own
Got no instructions
When it comes to love
Cause once you do something
Can′t be undone

Wish I could take back

Letting you go


If I knew then
What I know now
I wouldn't have said
I don't need you around
Alone in this mess
Silence is so loud
So I would treat you the best
Baby if I knew then
What I know now (What I know now)
What I know now (What I know now)

What I know now (What I know now)
Yeah I would treat you the best

Baby if I knew then
What I know now

Life should come with remote controls
Then I just rewind it to
The time it was better

It should have a restart button
So, I could travel right back
To the day that I met her

But there ain′t no handbook
You′re on your own
Got no instructions
When it comes to love

Cause once you do something
Can't be undone
Wish I could take back
Letting you go


If I knew then
What I know now
I wouldn′t have said
I don't need you around

Alone in this mess
Silence is so loud
So I would treat you the best
Baby if I knew then
What I know now (What I know now)

What I know now (What I know now)
What I know now (What I know now)

Yeah I would treat you the best
Baby if I knew then
What I know now

Cause there ain′t no handbook
You're on your own

Got no instructions
When it comes to love
See once you do something
Can′t be undone
Wish I could take back
Letting you go

If I knew then
What I know now
I wouldn't have said
I don't need you around
Alone in this mess
Silence is so loud

So I would treat you the best
Baby if I knew then
What I know now (What I know now)
What I know now (What I know now)
What I know now (What I know now)
Yeah I would treat you the best
Baby if I knew then
What I know now
If I knew then
What I know now
I wouldn′t have said
I don′t need you around
Alone in this mess
Silence is so loud
So I would treat you the best
Baby if I knew then
What I know now (What I know now)
What I know now (What I know now)
What I know now (What I know now)
Yeah I would treat you the best
Baby if I knew then
What I know now
