Maybe I should've known, my baby
To leave you alone, maybe

Maybe I should've known
I should've known
I should've known

Oh, but you couldn't stay, now could you?
Oh, you wouldn't say, now would you?

Oh, but I should've known
I should've known
I should've known

When the world is on your back
and life is anticipating
Well if you think it's love you lack,
mine's here waiting
(x2)

Oh' but I'll let you go
I should've known to let it go

And you didn't know, now did you?
That I'd fall in love with you
Oh, but now it's too late
It's useless to say

I should've known (x10)
