Lyrics If You Knew Better - Dan Owen

If You Knew Better

Does a garden need the rain?
Does an ocean need a wave?
Does a baby have to cry?
Does a courthouse need a crime?
Oh, do I need to waste my time?
If you, if you knew better
Then my heart wouldn’t have a thing to prove
If you, if you knew better
Then I wouldn’t have to say I love you
It’s like I’m frozen on the stage
I’m a writer, empty page
Like my tongue’s tied up in chains
Words are buried in my veins
Oh, do I have to go and change?
If you, if you knew better
Then my heart wouldn’t have a thing to prove
If you, if you knew better
Then I wouldn’t have to say I love you
And I know I can’t communicate it
And I’m always gonna underplay it
Can’t you hear what I’m not saying?
If you knew better
Then my heart wouldn’t have a thing to prove
If you, if you knew better
Then I wouldn’t have to say I love you, I love you
