How could I know I would have to leave you? How could I know I would hurt you so? You were the one I was born to love. Oh, how could I ever know? How could I ever know? How can I say to go on without me? How, when I know you still need me so, How can I say not to dream about me? How could I ever know? How could I ever know? Forgive me, can you forgive me? And hold me in your heart And find some new way to love me Now that we're apart How could I know I would never hold you? Never again in this world But oh, sure as you breathe I am there inside you How could I ever know? How could I ever know? How can I hope to go on without you? How can I know where you'd have me go? How can I bear not to dream about you? How can I let you go? How could I ever know? All I need is there in the garden All I would ask is care for the child of our love Come go with me, safe I will keep you Where you would lead me, there I would There I would, there we would, there we will go How could I know? Tell me how could I know? That tomorrow you will never leave me How could we ever know? How could I ever know? How could I ever know?
