I knew how to tie my
shoes when I was five years old
By my daddy's belt I knew I'd
better do what I was told
I knew how to get the girl
to like me for a while
And I knew just what to say
to make my mama smile
I knew
Jesus when I was twelve and I asked
Him in my heart
But I never knew loneliness could hurt so
bad until you tore my world apart
I never knew lonely till I knew you
Never knew a girl had the power
to tear a man in two
I know how much I love you,
and I wish that you could see
Without you by my side,
I'm just not me
There's a couple in the park tonight,
holding each other tight.
As I sit alone,
I can't bear this sight without you.
My heart won't let go of what used to be,
the best friend that you found in me is alone.
I never knew only till I knew you
Never knew a girl had the power
to tear a man in two
I know how much I love you,
and I wish that you could see
Without you by my side,
I'm just not me
I never knew only till I knew you
Never knew a girl had the power
to tear a man in two
I know how much I love you
And I wish that you could see
Without you by my side I'm
just not me
Without you by my side, I'm just not me
