I Didn't Know It at the Time Songtext
von Tim McGraw

I thought that my first love would be my wife
But in junior high
She moved away from here
And I thought Johnny′d always be my best friend
I haven't talked to him
In fifteen years

Back when I had those fights with my old man
I never thought that he′d be an old man

And I didn't know all those years ago
How the years would go
Flyin' by
Thought I knew it all but I was wrong
And I didn′t know
I didn′t know it at the time


I never thought good jobs were hard to find
'Till I let my pride cost me one
I never thought my whole life would change
′Till I heard the doctor say I had a son

I never really thought that I was lost
Until I heard my dyin' mother
Sing ′Old Rugged Cross'

And I didn′t know
All those years ago
How the years would go
Flyin' by
Thought I knew it all but I was wrong
And I didn't know
I didn′t know it at the time

Oh, I thought I knew it all
Oh, but I was wrong
And I didn′t know
I didn't know it at the time
I didn′t know, didn't know, didn′t know
I didn't know
Oh, I didn′t know, ohwww
