If You Only Knew
Love's Battlecry: If You Only Knew
Lyrics
When life's troubles come around
When faced with life's challenges
You run me to the next door down
You seek refuge in the nearest available support
So how many times can you put up with this
Questioning how much one can endure
But I'll find a way to make it up with a kiss
Commitment to finding a resolution through a gesture of love
I know at times I'm hard to stand
Acknowledging personal difficulty in being tolerated
I know it's hard to understand
Recognizing the challenge of being understood
Torn between affection and bad behavior
Struggling between love and misbehavior
But all I want is to be in your favor
Expressing a desire for favor despite flaws
If you only knew
Highlighting undisclosed thoughts and feelings
What I really think
Expressing personal opinions kept hidden
You keep the life from dying
Credit for preventing the decline of life
Won't let me stop from trying
Determination to persist despite challenges
If you only knew
Reiterating hidden sentiments
This bridge just won't break
Emphasizing the resilience of a connection
Take away all the heartless things I say
Apology for hurtful words spoken
If you only knew
Envisioning a life without the significant other
What I'd be like without you
Imagining the self without the partner
I'll admit some arguments
Admitting that some arguments lack rationale
Just don't make sense
Acknowledging the influence of power and pride
But power and pride may say I'm insane
Recognizing a distorted perception only the partner can understand
And that's a picture only you can paint
Anticipating numerous apologies and shared burdens
Expect a thousand apologies
Expressing fear and anxiety about the future
And hopes from me
Viewing the upcoming day as a borrowed time
I'll help you carry your cross and you carry me
Reiterating hidden thoughts and feelings
Sometimes I'm scared about tomorrow
Acknowledging fear about the unknown future
It's just another day I feel I have to barrow
Feeling like every day is a borrowed experience
If you only knew
Repeating the desire for understanding and connection
What I really think
Reiterating undisclosed thoughts and feelings
You keep the life from dying
Credit for preventing the decline of life
Won't let me stop from trying
Determination to persist despite challenges
If you only knew
Reiterating hidden sentiments
This bridge just won't break
Emphasizing the resilience of a connection
Take away all the heartless things I say
Apology for hurtful words spoken
If you only knew
Envisioning a life without the significant other
What I'd be like without you
Imagining the self without the partner
For someone who always danced alone
Reflecting on solitude in dancing and the unexpected companionship
I guess you thought you'd bring me along
Realization that the partner brought unpredicted challenges
I knew you might be trouble and blame
Acknowledging awareness of potential trouble
But this is how I fell in love with going insane
Explaining the unconventional way love blossomed
If you only knew
Reiterating undisclosed thoughts and feelings
What I really think
Expressing personal opinions kept hidden
You keep the life from dying
Credit for preventing the decline of life
Won't let me stop from trying
Determination to persist despite challenges
If you only knew
Reiterating hidden sentiments
This bridge just won't break
Emphasizing the resilience of a connection
Take away all the heartless things I say
Apology for hurtful words spoken
If you only knew
Envisioning a life without the significant other
What I'd be like without you
Imagining the self without the partner
