Alone, in the devil's hands
Inspired by the night
Echoes running through my mind
Telling me what's right
Pictures taken from my heart
Carefully placed into yours
That day was a miracle
And the smile kept it all, oh
I heard it
You felt it
And the band played on, oh oh
If only we'd known
If only we'd known
Clouds parted, sunlight shown
And we talked, and we talked
I left with not a dollar less
Love was all that I'd bought
I couldn't tell what I'd wanted more
A pair of ears or just your heart
I must've been granted royalty
'Cause I was gifted them both, oh
You knew it
I felt it
And the band played on, oh oh
If only we'd known
If only we'd known
It was more than a hole to fill
It was someone to love
As the days grew unbearable
What came from heaven above, oh
Comfort like I had never felt
A seal that would never break
Now I would never trade the world for any of it
'Cause you cured my heartache, oh
They knew it
They loved it
And the band played on, oh oh
If only we'd known
If only we'd known
