REBA MCENTIRE LYRICS - How Was I To Know

"How Was I To Know"



My world revolved around you

Every word was a promise I was hangin' on

Swept up inside a whirlwind

I just couldn't see the end till you were gone

I thought I would fall apart

With shattered dreams and a broken heart

Scramblin' in the dark



How was I to know

That I'd be O. K.

Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away

How was I to know

I would be this strong

I had what it takes all along

How was I to know



What I was so afraid of

Turned out to be my freedom in disguise

Now I know what I'm made of

Guess it just took some time to realize

I was blind I couldn't tell

Put too much faith in someone else

Gave up on myself



How was I to know

That I'd be O. K.

Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away

How was I to know

I would be this strong

I had what it takes all along

How was I to know



How was I to know

That I'd be O. K.

Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away

How was I to know

I would be this strong

I had what it takes all along

How was I to know

How was I to know
