| I never told her that I loved her
|
| But I do
|
| She never cried here on my shoulder
|
| If she was hurting, well I never knew
|
| I never saw her leavin' come
|
| Until the goodbye part was through
|
| Now the page has turned, and the lessons learned
|
| And a blind man sees
|
| It don’t happen 'til it does
|
| It don’t hit you 'til it lays you flat
|
| You don’t hear the lone train
|
| 'Til you’re tied up on the track
|
| You don’t want the way it is
|
| 'Til you’re wishin' for the way it was
|
| That’s how a heartache finds a fool
|
| It don’t happen 'til it does
|
| She always wanted me to want her
|
| Now I will
|
| She always needed me to come home
|
| Now I know how that feels
|
| These days I’m seein' things
|
| That only missin' her reveals
|
| Yeah what’s wrong is wrong, and what’s gone is gone
|
| And it’s gone for good
|
| It don’t happen 'til it does
|
| It don’t hit you 'til it lays you flat
|
| You don’t hear the lone train
|
| 'Til you’re tied up on the track
|
| You don’t want the way it is
|
| 'Til you’re wishin' for the way it was
|
| That’s how a heartache finds a fool
|
| It don’t happen 'til it does
|
| No you don’t see the warning signs
|
| All 'til it’s tail lights and a cloud of dust
|
| That’s how a heartache finds a fool
|
| It don’t happen 'til it does |
