Once upon time

A few mistakes ago

I was in your sights

I got you alone

You found me

You found me

You found me-e-e-e-e

(as long as you love me)

I guess i didn't care

I guess you liked that

And when you fell hard

I took a step back

Without you, without you, without you-u-u-u-u

And i’m long gone

When she's next to me

And i realize the blame is on me

As long as you love me

We could be starving

We could be homeless

We could be broke

As long as you love me

I'll be your platinum

I'll be your silver

I'll be your gold

I knew you were trouble when you walked in

So shame on me now

I flew you to places you’ve never been

As long as you lo-lo-lo-lo-love me (love me)

Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble

No apologies

He'll never see you cry

Pretend you don't know

That i’m the reason why

You're drowning, you're drowning, you're drowni-ni-ni-ni-ning

And you heard i moved on

From whispers on the street

A new notch in my belt

Is all you'll ever be

And now i see, now i see, now i see-ee-ee-ee-ee

As long as you love me

We could be starving

We could be homeless

We could be broke

As long as you love me

I'll be your platinum

I'll be your silver

I'll be your gold

I knew you were trouble when you walked in

So shame on me now

I flew you to places you’ve never been

Till you put me down oh

I knew you were trouble when you walked in

So shame on me now

I flew you to places you’ve never been

Now i'm lying on the cold hard ground

Lo-lo-lo-lo-love me (love me)

(trouble, trouble, trouble)

Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble

The saddest fear comes creeping in

That you never loved me

It hurts everything and everything

I knew you were trouble when you walked in

So shame on me now

I flew you to places you’ve never been

Till you put me down oh

I knew you were trouble when you walked in

So shame on me now

I flew you to places you’ve never been

Now i’m lying on the cold hard ground

Oh, oh trouble, trouble, trouble (lo-lo-lo-lo-love me (love me))

Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble

I knew you were trouble when you walked in

Trouble, trouble, trouble

I knew you were trouble when you walked in

Trouble, trouble, trouble
