As quick as the slip of the tongue
Her lips honey drip the taste of love
We were wrong to have gone our separate ways
But were we right to invite another taste?
Baby, you were so convincing
I even remember thinking that the power was my own
You were slow to invoke your fatal spell
Not sent from heaven above nor sent from hell
I was alone, turned to stone in your gaze
Why should I fight, I thought you might've changed your ways
Baby, you were so convincing
I even remember thinking that the power was my own
But I should've known, I should've known
I should've known, I should've known
I should've known, I should've known

I should've known
♪
My wildest dreams, just like scenes in a play
She knew her part, all by heart there on the stage
Was I wrong to play along if I didn't know
That the tragic mislead lover was my role?
Baby, you were so convincing
I even remember thinking that the power was my own
I should've known, I should've known
I should've known, I should've known
I should've known, I should've known
Baby, you were so convincing
I even remember thinking that the power was my own
Baby, you were so convincing
I even remember thinking that the power was my own
I should've known
