“IF ONLY SHE”
BETH REID BAUMAN
If only she’d known him way back when
Could have unlocked her door and let him in
As a low tide rolled in the dawning light
They sailed past each other wind wasn’t right
Tried not to think about what was on her mind
Fate brought them together after all that time
Years slipped by broken hearts made them wise
They burned through lovers husbands and wives
Built stone forts around their egos
Pierced by cupid’s jagged arrows.
Tried not to think about what was on her mind
Fate brought them together after all that time
Now she’s with another and promised her life
He lives alone and is doing just fine
If only she’d known him way back when
Could have unlocked her door and let him in
Tries not to think about what was on her mind
Fate brought them together after all that time
Never would hurt the one that she loves most
But was drawn to him and thinks that he knows
She thinks that he knows
She thinks that he knows
