I would never have been in such a rush
Em C Em C
I would never have tried to control
Em C Em C
I would never have worn such 'fear lenses'
Em C Em C
I would never have held on so tightly
(Em C)
I would have kept my boundaries set
My loving no’s, my unwavering yes’s
Risked abandonment and stood by that
And thereby felt constant connect
Em C G D
This fountain of regret, this looking back with twenty-twenty
Em C G D
Torturous hindsight if i knew then what i know now
Em C G D
This mountain of remorse won’t repeat with my understanding
Em C G D
This wouldn’t have happened if i knew then what i know now
(Em C)
I would’ve gone slower
Pushed infrequent
Would not have rushed into such commitment
I would’ve shown restraint as my feet got wet
I would’ve baby-stepped into intimate
(Em C G D)
This fountain of regret, this looking back with twenty-twenty
This torturous hindsight if i knew then what i know now
This mountain of remorse won’t repeat with my understanding
This wouldn’t have happened if i knew then what i know now
(Em C)
I would’ve known much more
Known that time was all we had for future depth to unfold
I would’ve had more faith at every step
I would’ve kept intact through the whole process
(Em C G D)
Oh this fountain of regret is looking back with twenty-twenty
Torturous hindsight if i knew then what i know now
This mountain of remorse won’t repeat with my understanding
This wouldn’t have happened if i knew then what i know now
