"I Should've Known" lyrics

Running circles 'round your words drives me insane
And I'm unsure how to take in what you say

'Cause when you walk my way
All my moves are off-time percussion
Can't tell if it's in my mind
Or I fell and took a bad concussion, baby
I know your desires
Aren't the ones that keep my tires inflated

When you weren't here by my side
I should've known
When you weren't there to be my light
I should've known, should've known

I should've known
I should've known
I should've known

When I put up my defense
You always seem to jump that fence
I think I needed to say this
I think I need you to hear this
Don't stop, I'm out the way, so if you think
We had a thing, important that you don't see it
That you don't see it

When you weren't here by my side
I should've known
You were once there to be my light
I should've known

When you weren't here by my side
I should've known
When you weren't there to be my light
I should've known, should've known

I should've known
I should've known
I should've known

When you weren't here by my side (Should've known, should've known, should've known, should've known)
I should've known (Should've known, should've known, should've known, should've known)
When you weren't there to be my light (Should've known, should've known, should've known, should've known)
I should've known (Should've known, should've known, should've known, should've known)
When you weren't here by my side
I should've known (I should've known)
When you weren't there to be my light
I should've known
