I Should Have Known Better
Jim Diamond
And I should have known better
To lie to 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 walkin' 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 to 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, 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 to 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?

Ooh, yeah

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

No, no, no, no, no, no, no
I love you
No, no, no, no, no, no
Yeah
And I should have known better
To lie to one as beautiful as you
