I Knew You Were Trouble Lyrics
Verse 1
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
Pre-Chorus
And he's long gone when he's next to me
And I realize the blame is on me
Chorus
'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So, shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd nеver been
'Til you put me down, oh
I knew you wеre trouble when you walked in
So, shame on me now
Flew me to places I'd never been
Now I'm lyin' on the cold hsard ground
Post-Chorus
Oh, oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Verse 2
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
And 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
Pre-Chorus
He was long gone when he met me
And I realize the joke is on me, yeah
Chorus
I knew you were trouble when you walked in (Oh)
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 lyin' on the cold hard ground
Post-Chorus
Oh, oh (Yeah)
Trouble, trouble, trouble (Trouble)
Oh, oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Bridge
And the saddest fear
Comes creepin' in
That you never loved me
Or her or anyone or anything, yeah
Chorus
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 lyin' on the cold, hard ground
Post-Chorus
Oh, oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble (oh)
Oh, oh
Trouble, trouble, trouble (trouble)
Outro
'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble
'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble
