Paroles de Bloan

If only you'd known...

You could have come back with bunches of flowers in your hands
Or was it a fistful of your lover's hair?

If only you had known

But you were thrown
onto the pyre of your easy chair
In a room full of broken glass everywhere

If only you had known...

Once he's collected all you could possibly pay

And if you had known
