On replay

We all have our "feel good" songs. This one happens to be on replay in my playlist today. For some reason, it kind of takes me back to my childhood days. After watching flipped, I can't help but recall my happy juvenile days and some ephemeral pleasures then.

The first time that I saw you 
Looking like you did
We were young, we were restless
Just two clueless kids

But if I knew then what I know now
I'd fall in love

You're on a bus in Chicago
Three rows to the left
You know my heart is reaching for you
But we never even met

If I knew then what I know now
I'd fall in love

'Cause love only comes
Once in a while
And knocks on your door
And throws you a smile

And takes every breath
Leaves every scar
Speaks through your soul
And sings to your heart

But if I knew then what I know now
I'd fall in love

On a summer night in august
Backseat of my car
Said I'm trying to get to know you
I took it way too far

But if I knew then what I know now
I'd fall in love

Whoa, 'cause love only comes
Once in a while
And knocks on your door
And throws you a smile

And takes every breath
Leaves every scar
Speaks through your soul
And sings to your heart

But if I knew then what I know now
I'd fall in love

Whoa, I used up a lot of chances
But you give them back
But if again it comes crawling
I'm gonna make it last

'Cause love only comes
Once in a while
And knocks on your door
And throws you a smile

It takes every breath
Leaves every scar
Speaks through your soul
And sings to your heart

And if I knew then what I know now
Whoa, if I knew then what I know now

I'd fall in love
