Shoulda Known Better Lyrics by MKTO

2019

[Verse 1]
Don't know why I still pretend
Can’t deny you always win
I shoulda known better
I let you slide into my head
Now we're right back here again
I know I was gonna let you
[Pre-Chorus]
I never thought I'd give in so easy
But baby, then you come over me
Try to resist your touch, so dangerous
Body, body, your body, you put it down on me
[Chorus]
I don’t drink no more 'cause every time I do
I don't think before I end up calling you
I can't quit, no, oh
I been trying forever
I-I-I shoulda known better
I don't drink no more 'cause every time I do
I don't think before I end up calling you
I can't quit, no, oh
I been trying forever
I-I-I shoulda known better
[Verse 2]
Late nights ain’t no good for me
Always end up at your place
I shoulda known better
Three shots in, I’m on my way
I should turn around, but it's too late
It’s too late now, babe
[Pre-Chorus]
But I never thought I
I never thought I'd give in so easy
(I never thought I'd give in)
But baby, then you come over me
(Baby, then you come over me)
I thought I'd resist your touch, so dangerous
(Ooh, dangerous)
Body, body, your body, you put it down on me
[Chorus]
I don’t drink no more (no) 'cause every time I do
I don't think before I end up calling you
I can't quit, no, oh
I been trying forever
I-I-I shoulda known better
[Bridge]
Every time I try to give you up
All I think about is you baby, my brain is stuck
How can I forget you, forgetting it ain't enough
Cause honestly, I'd never give you, I'd never give you up
Friends keep on dragging me to the club
All of them other girls, they ain't ever living up to your touch
Fly around the world, but no matter where I end up
You hit me in the heart like a suckerpunch
[Chorus]
I don't drink no more
I don't think before
I can't quit, no, oh
I been trying forever
I-I-I should known better
I don't drink no more 'cause every time I do
I don't think before I end up calling you
I can't quit, no, oh
I been trying forever
I-I-I shoulda known better
I-I-I shoulda known better
