Lyrics

HOW WAS I TO KNOW Ken Wank


How was I to know
That you were gonna say goodbye
When you told me long ago
You'd love me till the day I die
You swore you would guess I misunderstood

How was I to know
That I'd be here all by myself
All the signs you showed
You see they told me somethin' else
Were they just lies some big disguise

There was something you were hiding
That I didn't see at all
I wish there was some writing
That you'da left on the wall

How was I to know
That you were slippin' through my fingers
You gave me so much hope
But now all I got's a pain that lingers
Baby what we had was it so bad

Why did I believe
I could trust you with my emotions
The little things you'd say to me
Guess I mistook for your devotion
You had me sold but now I'm out in the cold

INSTRUMENTAL

There were dreams we had together
And promises you made
So I planned on forever
What a fool I
What a fool I
What a fool I played

Guess it was all pretend
Yeah you put on quite a show
If it was gonna end
Then baby tell me how was I to know
