"Then You'll Know" is a song by American country music singer Patsy Cline. It was composed by Bobby Lile and released as a single in 1957 via Decca Records. The song was the third single released from Cline's self-titled debut album. Although not a successful single, it was received positively by critics and writers.
In 1954, Patsy Cline signed her first recording contract with 4 Star Records and released a variety of singles, ranging in styles from traditional pop to traditional country. With 4 Star, only 1957's "Walkin' After Midnight" became a major pop crossover hit.[2] The song's success prompted 4 Star to attempt to duplicate its success with a series of pop-flavored singles released in 1957.[3] However, these songs proved unsuccessful and it was hoped that "Then You'll Know" would become a hit for Cline. The track had been composed by Bobby Lile.[4] "Then You'll Know" was recorded on April 25, 1957, at the Decca Records Studios located in New York City. The sessions were produced by Paul Cohen.[3]
