I Should Of Lyrics - Pretenders

If I'd known then 

If only I had known 

What, where or when 

I would of kept you on the phone 

Hindsight is tough 

It's so obvious 

Never enough for the two of us 

I would of tried a little harder 

I would have cried a little louder 

I would have lied with more aplomb 

I, I, I, I, I, I, I should have known 

When we made love 

Sometimes it was great 

Just once or twice 

I would have called it second rate 

Anyway the days passed by in peace 

I never though you needed 

More release 

I would of tried a little harder 

I would have cried a little louder 

I would have lied with more aplomb 

I, I, I, I, I, I, I should have known 

If I had...if, if, if 

I should have, I should have 

I could have, I could have 

Oh fuck, I really miss you 

I really miss you 

I should have tried a little harder 

I should have cried a whole lot louder 

I should have lied 

With more aplomb 

I, I, If only I, I should have known
