Possessed By Paul James - Shoulda' Known Better 歌词

Perfumed letters of an earlier time
Memories of ladies now lay far behind
Too many lovers makes her heart go blind
Well, I should've known better

I was so foolish and I chased the sun
Young once and fine, now my days are done
Too many lovers makes you on the run
Well, I should've known better

Well, I tried too hard and spoke too soon
Oh, I got too drunk and shot the moon
All the while I'd look at you and you'd say
Oh, you should've known better baby
Oh, you should've known better baby
Oh, you should've known better
Oh baby, yes I do
Well darlin', now I do

I jump from roof tops both far and wide
I stole their kisses and I robbed them blind
Leaving lovers in a bed of lies
Well, I should've known better

I was a lion tamer long ago
A veteran in the art of fooling ghosts
Much too lonely for their hearts to know
Well I should've known better

Go ahead!
Well, I tried too hard and spoke too soon
Oh, I got too drunk and shot the moon
All the while I'd look at you and you'd say
Oh, you should've known better baby
Oh, you should've known better baby
Oh, you should've known better
Oh baby, now I do
Well darlin, now I do

Yes, Sir

Now, an old man and nothing more
Much too tired, oh, to even scores
My wife, she left me back in '94
Well I should've known better

And as I sit within my shallow grave
Looking for answers, oh, I should've saved
Just out of heaven's reach, amazing grace
Well I should've known better

Well, I tried too hard and spoke too soon
Oh, I got too drunk and shot the moon
All the while I'd look at you and you'd say
Oh, you should've known better baby
Oh, you should've known better baby
Oh, you should've known better
Well baby, now I do
Oh, you should've known better baby
Oh, you should've known better baby
Oh, you should've known better
Oh baby, now I do
Well baby, now I do
