gil mckinney - how was i to know lyrics
back in new york city
last time you walked with me
peacoats and fedoras
jazz music played for us
cool breeze in the park
stiff drinks after dark
how was i to know
how was i to know
that’d be the last time
that i’d see your face
you put your hand on my shoulder
the last time you’d grow older
how was i to know
back in new york city
last time you talked with me
of past recollection
a lifetime of connections
of people that you missed
and jokes of bucket lists
how was i to know
how was i to know
that’d be the last time
that i’d see your face
you put your arm around my shoulder
the last time you’d grow older
oh how was i to know
and the thought that i feel
is so painfully real
your soul’s everywhere
like snow hanging in the air
the lessons you left behind
they’re always on my mind
the beating in my heart
and a dying work of art
but how was i to know
that’d be the last time
that i’d see your face
without your arm around my shoulder
this world is so much colder
how was i to know
how was i to know
back in new york city
this time you’re not with me
but a love that’s undenied
big bright eyes by my side
a new world to explore
my daughter to adore
how was i to know
