i know i'm getting kinda picky here but it's "at least we would know IF the sparks didn't glow". it changes the meaning of the whole last part! he is ready for a relationship and she might not be, and he's just saying hey let's give it a shot and if it doesn't work, it doesn't work and at least we tried. but the way it's posted now is implying they already tried! best song ever by the way! every single line fits literally word for word for me and the girl i like! it's almost creepy how well it fits.......

No, it's definitely "at least we would know THAT the sparks didn't glow"... Listen to it again! Although I think it would have mad more sense if he said IF. In a way, I think he says 'that' but he still means 'if'. I don't really think it changes the meaning if you think of it my way, if any of that made any sense.
