Lyrics
0:35I should thank you almost
0:38No one could kill it off until you bled it
0:45But I got rid of that ghost
0:48Though certain habits remain imbedded
0:55With the shadow of a doubt
0:59But baby it was you who fed it
1:04And I don't know what else to say
1:06But I think you get it
1:09I should've known
1:14It was coming down to this
1:16I should've known
1:20You would betray me but without the kiss
1:22I should've known
1:27The kind of set up it is
1:32And always isn't always
1:36When it's not your photograph that I've been keeping
1:42But you still live in those days
1:45When I'd stay awake just to watch you sleeping
1:52You delivered that blow
1:55But it left a mark on me that you're not seeing
2:01And I don't know what else you hear
2:03But it's not me weeping
2:07I should've known
2:11It was coming down to this
2:13I should've known
2:17You would betray me but without the kiss
2:20I should've known
2:24The kind of set up it is
2:30I should've seen the cracks in the ceiling
2:32And the mirror covered up with dust
2:36But I was busy talking on the phone
2:42I should've seen the obstacles but I said
2:45This house was built for us
2:48Hello
2:53Is anybody home
3:21I should've known
3:25The minute that we hit the wall
3:27I should've known
3:31The writing was upon the stall
3:34I should've known
3:38Cause Rome was starting to fall
I should thank you almost No one could kill it off until you bled it But I got rid of that ghost Though certain habits remain imbedded With the shadow of a doubt But baby it was you who fed it And I don't know what else to say But I think you get it I should've known It was coming down to this I should've known You would betray me but without the kiss I should've known The kind of set up it is And always isn't always When it's not your photograph that I've been keeping But you still live in those days When I'd stay awake just to watch you sleeping You delivered that blow But it left a mark on me that you're not seeing And I don't know what else you hear But it's not me weeping I should've known It was coming down to this I should've known You would betray me but without the kiss I should've known The kind of set up it is I should've seen the cracks in the ceiling And the mirror covered up with dust But I was busy talking on the phone I should've seen the obstacles but I said This house was built for us Hello Is anybody home I should've known The minute that we hit the wall I should've known The writing was upon the stall I should've known Cause Rome was starting to fall
