Woke up with you back in my bed
We broke up, how'd this happen again?
I always end up lettin' you in
When I start drinkin' not thinkin'
I should've listened to all of my friends
Same road and the same dead end
I'm lovin' while she pretends
So I keep drinkin' not thinkin'
First love is hard enough
Even worse to give it up
I can't forget her when she's gone
But she can't leave when I'm holdin' on
So what can I say?
I made a mistake this time, you'll never change
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
It's always the same
I'll take the blame this time, I'll never change
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
Girl, your nothin' but trouble and I should've know better
Every time that I start to forget
I drive by the spot where we first met
You had nothin' on underneath that dress
We were just drinkin' not thinkin'
Just two kids, it was way too soon
We didn't realize what we had to lose
No way to know we wouldn't make it through
Didn't know we'd end up sinking
First love is hard enough
Even worse to give it up
I can't forget her when she's gone
But she can't leave when I'm holdin' on
So what can I say?
I made a mistake this time, you'll never change
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
It's always the same
I'll take the blame this time, I'll never change
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
Keep leaving me with nothin'
Someday I'll learn my lesson
Right now I'm losing this fight woah oh
Lust ain't the same as trusting
Can't figure out this loving
Guess it ain't happening tonight woah oh
So what can I say?
I made a mistake this time, you'll never change
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
It's always the same
I'll take the blame this time, I'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
Girl, I should've known better
