Swept up inside a whirlwind
What I was so afraid of
Oh, I was blind I couldn't tell
How was I to know that I'd be okay
How was I to know
Scramblin' in the dark
Put too much faith in someone else
With shattered dreams and a broken heart
Turned out to be my freedom in disguise
Guess it just took some time to realize
Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away
How was I to know
Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away
How was I to know I would be the strong
How was I to know that I'd be okay
How was I to know that I'd be okay
I gave up on myself
How was I to know I would be the strong
I had what it takes all along
I had what it takes all along
Thought I'd lose it all when you walked away
Now I know what I'm made of
I just couldn't see the end till you were gone
I had what it takes all along
Oh, I thought I would fall apart
How was I to know I would be the strong
