If I Knew Then lyrics - Backstreet Boys

Life should be like a game of cards

You make a mistake

Shuffle the deck and start over

It should be just like driving in your car

Get lost and your navigation system

Gets you closer

[Pre-chorus:]

But there ain't no handbook

You're on your own

Got no instructions

When it comes to love

Cause once you do something

Can't be undone

Wish I could take back

Letting you go

[Chorus:]

If I knew then

What I know now

I wouldn't have said

I don't need you around

Alone in this mess

Silence is so loud

So I would treat you the best

Baby if I knew then

What I know now (What I know now)

What I know now (What I know now)

What I know now (What I know now)

Yeah I would treat you the best

Baby if I knew then

What I know now

Life should come with remote controls

Then I just rewind it to

The time it was better

It should have a restart button

So, I could travel right back

To the day that I met her

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus]

Cause there ain't no handbook

You're on your own

Got no instructions

When it comes to love

See once you do something

Can't be undone

Wish I could take back

Letting you go

[Chorus x2]
