"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, e-e-e-e

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, e-e-e-e

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, i-i-i-ing

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, e-e-e-e

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

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
