Should Have Known Better

So many years I just suffered through the tears

Knowing one day I'd wake up wishing I had never met her

But as the time goes by my hope keeps playing every day

As I laugh to myself, 'I just should have known better'

There's no more laughter as I think about the other girl

It's a slap in my face as I'm opening her letter

She's doing fine now with two kids and another man

As I cry out loud, 'I just should have known better'

She was the reason I was living every day

I would ride upon a white horse in my quest to try and find her

But now it's too late, I don't care if I die tonight

Cos a voice keeps ringing in my heart, 'I should have known better'

I learned my lesson this time

Loneliness and a broken heart

Should've known right from the start

I learned my lesson this time

Loneliness and a broken heart

Should've known right from the start

I learned my lesson this time...
