I am my mother's daughter

I watched her with my father

I saw it all, the good and bad

Should've known better than that

You found me at the right time

I loved you from that first night

Bet everything on what we had

Should've known better than that

I gave you my heart

you let it go to waste

You made me do the leaving

and you made me take the blame

Does it make you feel good

to make me feel bad

Yeah, you should've known better

should've known better

Than to break what you couldn't fi

Boy, what a shame

what you're gonna miss

Why'd you go and do

what you can't take back

Yeah, you should've known better

should've known better than that

You sold me on the fantasy

Damn it, it all felt real to me

Thought you were the man

in the photograph

Should've known better than that

Oh, I should've known better than that

I gave you my heart

you let it go to waste

You made me do the leaving

and you made me take the blame

Does it make you feel good

to make me feel bad

Yeah, you should've known better

should've known better

Than to break what you couldn't fi

Boy, what a shame,

what you're gonna miss

Why'd you go and do

what you can't take back

Yeah, you should've known better

should've known better than that

(instrumental break)

Still some nights Im crying on the floor

But I'm not sleeping in the bed

you made no more

I gave you my heart

you let it go to waste

You made me do the leaving

and you made me take the blame

Does it make you feel good

to make me feel bad

Yeah, you should've known better

should've known better

Than to break what you couldn't fi

Boy, what a shame

what you're gonna miss

Why'd you go and do

what you can't take back

Yeah, you should've known better,

should've known better than that

Oh, you should've known better than that
