letra de if i knew you then - elliot valentine lee, mel hornyak

jason:
i was fifteen and trapped at a ball
and both of us snuck off the floor
me because i was too nervous to speak
you because everyone begged you for more

i said “i’m not great with parties”
and you smiled and said “neither am i”
but i could tell from the flush in your cheeks
that you knew why you drew every eye
they loved you. everyone loved you, so why not i?
but your date had a name and a fortune
and a title a half-mile long
and when he found you and whisked you away
i knew why hе chose you for every song
hе loved you. everyone loved you, so why would i?

if i knew you then
i would have learned to dance just to hold you
if i knew this then
i would have learned to be brave and told you
if i knew you then
maybe i could stop from asking whether
if i knew this then
we’d have spent these past four years together

louis:
there was this one summery evening
some early june — the sun began to dip
i passed by you watching the sky
saw the wistful tilt of your lip

you looked miles away, i found nothing to say
as my little heart just split in two
i knew intruding would be like polluting
a droplet of morning dew
it was lovely, so lovely to you, but was i?
and then i learned that you had maya
who was perfect in all your ways
you’d never look at me like a princess
so i learned to lower my gaze
she loved you. i thought she loved you, so why would i?

if i knew you then
i would embroider sunsets for you
if i knew this then
i would not try and ignore you
if i knew you then
maybe i could stop from asking whether
if i knew this then
we’d have spent these past four years together

jason/louis:
four years of birding and nighttime walks
unabashed flirting and pillow talks
four years of snuggling close in bed
four and so many more years ahead

four years of learning your favorite things
kissing your fingers and counting your rings
four years of memories, all thrown away
full of delaying and longing to say
jason:
i love you

louis:
i love you!

jason/louis:
now i know you’re mine

louis:
i am worth your soul’s devotion

jason/louis:
now i know i’m yours

jason:
i can name this new emotion

jason/louis:
now that we are one, we don’t need to wonder whether
we can spend countless more years together
