now i know

i thought it would be like poetry that feeling of when eyes meet they said it would feel so easy like how a bird takes to the trees they've written the songs and films and books how it would take just one timely look to dance and fall your way into love and that's how you'll know he's the one it feels like way back when i wish i had known it then there's no such thing as a soulmate 'cause love is what you make of it i think i've got a taste of it i wish i had known all of this before i wish i had known but at least now i know i thought summer vacation would never end that feeling of sinking toes in the sand they said to enjoy it while you can but those words never seemed to land it feels like way back when i wish i had known it then that time is the quickest of thieves she won't ever be caught by nobody she'll run all the way to eternity i wish i had known all of this before i wish i had known but at least now i know it feels like way back when i wish i had known it then that soon we'll be gone with a final breath and there won't be time to hold onto regrets but i know there's something on the other end i wish i had known all of this before i wish i had known but at least now i know i wish i had known but at least now i know
