I Should've Known Better

And I should've known better

To lie to one as beautiful as you

Yeah, I should've known better

To take a chance on ever losing you

But I thought you'd understand

Can you forgive me?

I, 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've known better

To lie to one as beautiful as you

Yeah, I should've known better

To take a chance on ever losing you

But I thought you'd understand

Can you forgive me?

I should've known better

I should've known better, oh

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 tears don't seem to help me carry on

And now there is no chance that you'll come home

You got too much pride

And I should've known better

To lie to one as beautiful as you

Yeah, I should've known better

To take a chance on ever losing you

But I thought you'd understand

Can you forgive me?

I love you

I should've known better

Should've known better, oh

And I should've known better

To lie to one as beautiful as you
