Close, but try:

Wouldn't you've known it Wouldn't you've known You're hardly the guessing Hardly the guessing kind I'm guessing you knew Just how I thought of you all along

Now you're here again with me I can't believe If it's just something that we do Despite our efforts to be true Making time for ourselves And other selves This isn't done cuz we are selfishly true

I'd have it just the way we were I'd have it just the way we were again

Wouldn't you've known it Wouldn't you've known You're hardly the guessing Hardly the guessing kind I'm guessing you knew Just how I thought of you all along

Why would you want to spite If there's someone wants to smile Making time for ourselves And other selves This isn't done cuz we are selfish I'm guessing that you knew

Yes this seems more accurate...this song is a tricky one. I was listening to the track on Fits (versus the one on Last Day of Summer) when I was making this attempt.

Those are the lyrics for the Fits version. These are the mostly-identical lyrics for the Last Day of Summer version:

Wouldn't you've known it Wouldn't you've known it You're hardly the guessing Not hardly the guessing kind I'm guessing you knew Just how I thought of you all along

Now you're here again with me I can't believe If it's just something that we do Despite our efforts to be true We make time for ourselves And other selves This isn't done cuz we are selfish I'm guessing you

I'd have it just the way we were I'd have it just...
