I Should’ve Known Songtext
von Aimee Mann

I should thank you almost
No one could kill it off until you bled it
But I got rid of that ghost
Though certain habits still remain embedded
With this shadow of doubt
Baby it was you who fed it
Well, I don′t know what else to say but I think you get it

Chorus:

I should've known that it was coming down to this
I should′ve known you would betray me but without the kiss
I should've known the kind of set up it is


And always isn't always
When it′s not your photograph that I′ve been keeping
But you're still living those days
When I′d stay awake just to watch you sleeping
You delivered that blow
But it left a mark on me that you're not seeing
Well, I don′t know what else you hear but it's not me weeping

Chorus:

I should′ve known that it was coming down to this
I should've known you would betray me but without the kiss
I should've known the kind of set up it is

I should′ve seen the cracks in the ceiling and the mirror covered up with dust
But I was busy talking on the phone
I should′ve seen the obstacles but I said this house was built for us
Hello... is anybody home?

I should've known the minute that we hit the wall
I should′ve known the writing was up on the stall
I should've known ′cause Rome was starting to fall

Oh, I should've known
Well tell me this
Who was ever gonna tell you so
That I should thank you almost
I should′ve known
That I should thank you almost
