BAT FOR LASHES
"If I Knew"
(Natasha Khan)

You know that you came at the perfect time
There was a mountain I had to claim as mine
And you brought every weather from storm to shine
But I'm thankful for who you helped me find

[Chorus:]
Baby, if I knew what I know now
I would never turn it back around
Wrong or right, you held me up to the light
The mountain had a mirror inside
And where I was going took time

You've seen me walk through a veil of fire
Strung up by the darkness as my pain flew higher
And I thought it was you I'd been searching for
But somehow I am the mirror, the mountain, the door

[Chorus:]
Baby, if I knew what I know now
I could never turn it back around
Wrong or right, you held me up to the light
The mountain had a mirror inside
And where I was going took time
