I Should Have Known Better

And I should have known better

To lie with one as beautiful as you

Yeah, I should have known better

To take a chance on ever losing you

But I thought you'd understand, can you forgive me?

I saw you walking by the other day

I know that you saw me, you turned away and I was lost

You see: I've never loved no one 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 with one as beautiful as you

I should have known better

To take a chance on ever losing you

But I thought you'd understand, can you forgive me?

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

Should have known better

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, 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 known

I cry but tears don't seem to help me carry on

Now there is no chance you'll come back home

Got too much pride

And I should have known better

To lie with one as beautiful as you

I should have known better

To take a chance on ever losing you

But I thought you'd understand, can you forgive me?

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, love you

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, love you

No, no, no, no, no, I love you!

No, no, no, no, no, yeah!

And I should have known better

To lie with one as beautiful as you
