Should Have Known Better - Jim Diamond

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-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 know.

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

I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I love you.

No-no-no-no-no-no I love you!

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

And I should have known better to lie with one as beautiful as you
