reba mcentire - how was i to know lyrics

(stephony smith/cathy majeski/sunny russ)
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
