I thought my first love would be my wife
But in junior high she moved away from here
I thought John would 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 he'd be an old man
And I didn't know all those years ago
All the
years ago
Flying 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
Until I let my pride cast me wrong
I never thought that my whole life would change
Until I heard the doctor say
I lost my daughter
I never even knew that I was lost
Until I laid there heart beating outside my
chest I know And I didn't know
All
those years ago
All the
years ago
Flying by Thought I knew it all
But I was wrong And I didn't know I didn't know it at the time
And I didn't know
All those years ago All the years ago
Flying by
Thought I knew it all But I was wrong
And I didn't know I didn't know it at the time
I didn't know I didn't know it at the time
