"I Knew You Were Trouble" lyrics
"I Knew You Were Trouble"
Once upon a time, a few mistakes ago
I was in your sights, you got me alone
You found me, you found me, you found me
I guess you didn't care, and I guess I liked that
And when I fell hard you took a step back
Without me, without me, without me
And he's long gone when he's next to me
And I realize the blame is on me
'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been
'Til you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
No apologies. He'll never see you cry
Pretends he doesn't know that he's the reason why
You're drowning, you're drowning, you're drowning
Now I heard you moved on from whispers on the street
A new notch in your belt is all I'll ever be
And now I see, now I see, now I see
He was long gone when he met me
And I realize the joke is on me, hey!
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been
'Til you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been (yeah)
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
And the saddest fear comes creeping in
That you never loved me or her, or anyone, or anything, yeah
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been (Never been)
'Til you put me down, oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in (Knew it right there)
So shame on me now (Knew it right there)
Flew me to places I'd never been (Ooh)
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble

Taylor Swift previewed this track during an episode of ABC's Good Morning America on the 8th of October 2012. She introduced it saying, "It's a song that is one of my favorites on the album, because it sounds just as chaotic as the feeling was when I wrote it."
The inspiration for the song was described by Taylor Swift who told The Boot, "I've written about 'shame on you, you broke my heart,' but I've never written about 'shame on me, you broke my heart, I knew when you walked in, you were going to be complete bad news and I ran toward you anyway, I believed you anyway, I fell for you anyway, even though every red flag was going up every step of the way.'"
The Swedish duo of Shellback and Max Martin were the co-authors of this song. They also collaborated with Taylor Swift on her hit single "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together".
Actor Reeve Carney is featured in the
music video for the song. The video won Best Female Video at 2013 MTV Video Music Award.
