Should Have Known Better Lyrics
Woke up with you back in my bed,
We broke up, How'd this happen again?
I always end up lettin' you in,
When I start drinkin' not thinkin'
I should've listened to all of my friends,
Same road and the same dead end,
I'm lovin' while she pretends,
So I keep drinkin' not thinkin'
First love is hard enough,
Even worse to give it up,
I can't forget her when she's gone,
But she can't leave when I'm holdin' on.
So what can I say?
I made a mistake this time, you'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
It's always the same,
I'll take the blame this time, I'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
Girl, I should've know better.
Every time that I start to forget
I drive by the spot where we first met
You had nothin' on underneath that dress,
We were just drinkin' not thinkin'
Just two kids, it was way too soon,
We didn't realize what we had to lose,
No way to know we wouldn't make it through,
Didn't know we'd end up sinking
First love is hard enough,
Even worse to give it up,
I can't forget her when she's gone,
But she can't leave when I'm holdin' on
So what can I say?
I made a mistake this time, you'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
It's always the same,
I'll take the blame this time, I'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
Keep leaving me with nothin'
Someday I'll learn my lesson
Right now I'm losing this fight woah oh,
Lust ain't the same as trusting,
Can't figure out this loving,
Guess it ain't happening tonight woah oh,
So what can I say?
I made a mistake this time, you'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
It's always the same,
I'll take the blame this time, I'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
Girl, I should've known better
I should've known better
I should've known better
We broke up, How'd this happen again?
I always end up lettin' you in,
When I start drinkin' not thinkin'
Same road and the same dead end,
I'm lovin' while she pretends,
So I keep drinkin' not thinkin'
Even worse to give it up,
I can't forget her when she's gone,
But she can't leave when I'm holdin' on.
I made a mistake this time, you'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
It's always the same,
I'll take the blame this time, I'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
Girl, I should've know better.
I drive by the spot where we first met
You had nothin' on underneath that dress,
We were just drinkin' not thinkin'
We didn't realize what we had to lose,
No way to know we wouldn't make it through,
Didn't know we'd end up sinking
Even worse to give it up,
I can't forget her when she's gone,
But she can't leave when I'm holdin' on
I made a mistake this time, you'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
It's always the same,
I'll take the blame this time, I'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
Someday I'll learn my lesson
Right now I'm losing this fight woah oh,
Lust ain't the same as trusting,
Can't figure out this loving,
Guess it ain't happening tonight woah oh,
I made a mistake this time, you'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
It's always the same,
I'll take the blame this time, I'll never change.
You're nothin' but trouble and I should've known better
Girl, I should've known better
I should've known better
I should've known better

Good one!
Basically this song is self explanatory.. But, it's really about a boy falling in love with a girl when they are younger and she does something which makes her 'trouble' yet the boy can't stop going back to her and he doesn't know why. He always finds her 'back in his bed' and forever making mistakes.
It's such a good song and speaks to me in so many ways, it reminds me of my situation with my ex. It was just a constant cycle of him cheating, us falling out and me getting back with him. This song is go good!!
