I Shouldve Known — текст песни (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 remain imbedded

With the shadow of a doubt

But baby it was you who fed it

And I dont know what else to say

But I think you get it.





I shouldve known

It was coming down to this

I shouldve known

You would betray me but without the kiss

I shouldve known

The kind of set-up it is.



And always isnt always

When its not your photograph that Ive been keeping

But you still live in those days

When Id stay awake just to watch you sleeping

You delivered that blow

But it left a mark on me that youre not seeing

And I dont know what else you hear

But its not me weeping





I shouldve known

It was coming down to this

I shouldve known

You would betray me but without the kiss

I shouldve known

The kind of set-up it is.



I shouldve seen the cracks in the ceiling

And the mirror covered up with dust

But I was busy talking on the phone

I shouldve seen the obstacles but I said,

This house was built for us

Hello

Is anybody home?





I shouldve known

The minute that we hit the wall

I shouldve known

The writing was upon the stall

I shouldve known

cause rome was starting to fall



And I should thank you, almost.
