If You Knew What I Know
Revelations of Love's Deceit: "If You Knew What I Know
Lyrics
Oh, if you knew what I know
Expressing knowledge about a certain situation or person.
You'd be glad to let him go
Suggesting that knowing the truth would lead to a decision to end a relationship.
A guy that stays true is hard one to find
Highlighting the rarity of finding someone who remains faithful.
I've heard my old flame is now on your mind
Indicating that a previous romantic interest is now occupying the thoughts of the person being addressed.
But if you knew what I know
Reiterating the idea that knowing certain information should lead to ending the relationship.
You'd be glad to let him go
Emphasizing the expected relief or happiness after parting ways.
Has he told you of the joys that we knew?
Raising questions about whether the current partner has shared details of past experiences.
Or does he pretend he loves only you
Pondering whether the current partner is truthful in professing love.
'Cause if you knew what I know
Reiterating the idea that knowing the truth should prompt the decision to end the relationship.
You'd be glad to let him go
Highlighting the anticipated positive emotions after letting go.
Someday you'll know his love isn't real
Suggesting a future realization that the current partner's love is not genuine.
He'll come back to me and then how will you feel
Anticipating the return of the previous flame and questioning the listener's emotions at that time.
'Cause he'll cheat on you like he cheated on me
Warning that the current partner will likely be unfaithful, drawing on past experience.
So send him back now while your heart's still free
Advising the listener to end the relationship before they become emotionally attached.
'Cause if you knew what I know
Reiterating the idea that knowing the truth should lead to the decision to let go.
You'd be glad to let him go
Emphasizing the expected positive feelings after ending the relationship.
You'd be glad to let him go
Repeating the sentiment that ending the relationship would be a source of happiness.
