Lyrics
It’s not a sign of meekness
To say you’re wrong
When you discover your mistake
It doesn’t show your weakness
It shows you’re strong
When you admit a blunder that you make
For
REFRAIN
I know now, you’re the only one
I know now, I’m the lonely one
I had to learn how a heart can yearn
How tears can burn with no one to turn to
I know now, that I can’t forget
I can’t, for I don’t know how
I guess I never knew how I needed you
But sweetheart, I know now
