Took a chance
Roll the dice on me and you
Opened up, let you in my world
Like a dance
Started slow and then love took control
Swept away, so proud to be your girl

But when you write a story much too fast
Sometimes a happy ending doesn’t last

Now I know
That love ain’t meant to be a play thing
Now I know
It’s not an ordinary, every day thing
Now I know
That when it’s right it’s so amazing
But when it’s wrong you got to let it go
Now I know
Now I know

Remember when
We said our love would last forever
But then again
How are we to know
There’ll come a time
That love will change like stormy weather
A sunny day can suddenly turn cold

Time will teach you all you need to learn
But there’ll always a be a first time you get burned

Now I know
That love ain’t meant to be a play thing
Now I know
It’s not an ordinary, every day thing
Now I know
That when it’s right it’s so amazing
But when it’s wrong you got to let it go
Now I know
Now I know
Yeah

I don’t regret a single day
They joy and pain along the way
A broken heart’s the price we pay
Sad as it may seem
Baby can’t you see
It’s the way it’s got to be

Now I know
That love ain’t meant to be a play thing
Now I know
It’s not an ordinary, every day thing
Now I know
That when it’s right it’s so amazing
But when it’s wrong you got to let it go
Now I know
Now I know
Yeah
Now I know
I know
