Hmmm - well after reading the link that mevans14843 shared, I now have a whole different thought on what this song means. See my ex b/f sent me a text that said "if you only knew" - Shinedown in it. Which lead me to this site. I thought it meant that he will always love me but he has moved on. But if Brent from Shinedown wrote this for his g/f who ended up having his child, I either think A. My ex still loves me or B. He wasn't really paying attention to the lyrics of this song when he txt me or C. It's open for interpretation (just as most things are) : o).
