*lyrics* Verse: I should have known that it would end this way. I should have known there was no other way. Didn't hear your warning. Damn my heart gone deaf. I should have known, look at the shape you're in. I should have known, but I dove right in. One thing is for certain, as I'm standing here, I should have known. Pre-Chorus: Lay your hands in mine. Heal me one last time. Chorus: Though I can not forgive you yet. No I can not forgive you yet. Leave my heart in debt. Verse: I should have known I was inside of you. I should of known there was that side of you. Came without a warning, caught me unaware. I should have known, I've been here before. I should have known, don't want it anymore. One thing is for certain, I'm still standing here, I should have known. Pre-Chorus: Lay your hands in mine. Feel me one last time. Chorus: Though I can not forgive you yet. No I can not forgive you yet. Leave my heart in debt. No I can not forgive you yet. No I can not forgive you yet. You leave my heart in debt. I should have known. Bridge: Maybe you was right, Didn't wanna fight. I should have known Couldn't read the signs, couldn't see the light. I should have known. Chorus: Though I can not forgive you yet. No I can not forgive you yet. Leave my heart in debt. No I can not forgive you yet. No I can not forgive you yet. You leave my heart in debt. No I can not forgive you yet. No I can not forgive you yet. You leave us all in debt. I should have known.
