I Wouldn't Know

You always said I'd be burned by you

But I would not listen to you

And now I know just what you meant

I played with fire

But I should have listened to all you said

But you were just too perfect

And I was just too lonely and I took the chance

I took a chance

And I'm glad I risked it all for you

'Cause I wouldn't know what love is

If I didn't give my heart away to you

But now I know, now I know, now I know

I've learned so much and now I know

That what I had for you was true love

You're my first true love

And I had to be taught the hard way

I wanted to beg you to stay with me forever

But now it's over

And what I dreamed would happen didn't

I thought that it could work, it couldn't be

And I'm glad I risked it all for you

'Cause I wouldn't know what love is

If I didn't give my heart away to you

But now I know, now I know, now I know

And now I know

Turned my sadness into this smile

And so now the pain is gone
