I Knew

I Knew -Bonnie Raitt

Time time ain't never healed the wound

Can't think of anything that gets

Any better 'cause it's old

Change change would prob'ly do me good

Wouldn't prob'ly hurt a thing

Anyway that's what I'm told

I would have run but I couldn't run

Would have flown but I couldn't fly

I would have headed right back into town

I would have lied but I couldn't lie

'Cause I knew

Stop stop and take a better look

There ain't no telling what you'll find

In the corner of a darkened room

Things things that either one time fell

Or blew down from a windowsill

Or never got up by the broom

I would have run but I couldn't run

Would have flown but I couldn't fly

I woulda headed right back into town

I woulda lied but I couldn't lie

'Cause I knew

No two ways about it it's a doggone shame

Baby it's a doggone shame

I would have run but I couldn't run

Would have flown but I couldn't fly

I woulda headed right back into town

I woulda lied but I couldn't lie

'Cause I knew
