I Should Have Known Better lyrics

I saw you walkin' by the other day

I know that you saw me

And turned away

And I was lost

You see, I've never loved anyone

As much as you

I've fooled around, but tell me now

Just who is hurting who?

And I should have known better

To lie to one as beautiful as you

And I should have known better

To take a chance on ever losing you

But I thought you'd understand

Won't you forgive me?

I should have known better

I should have known better

It's true

I took our love for granted all along

And trying to explain where I went wrong

I just don't know

I cry 

But crying doesn't help me carry on

And now it seems 

You'll never come back home

You got too much pride

And I should have known better

To lie to one as beautiful as you

Hey, I should have known better

To take a chance on ever losing you

But I thought you'd understand

Won't you forgive me?

I should have known better

I should have known better

Hey, I should have known

Yeah, yeah, yeah

And I should have known better

To lie to one as beautiful as you

Ooh, I should have known better

To take a chance on ever losing you

But I thought you'd understand

Won't you forgive me?  

Hey, yeah

Girl, I should have known better

I should have known better

Yeah
