Shoulda kept my distance
Shoulda known what I be riskin'
But nothin' short of holding you would ever do

Darlin', if we could be together
I would wait for you forever
But how am I gonna win if you never lose

I could feel the pressure
I could see you were something special
I couldn't walk away from you if I'd tried

Darlin', I wanna be near you
If only you'd feel like I do
I must've had it wrong, I shoulda known

Somebody like you could break my heart
Somebody like you could tear my world apart, oh yeah
Somebody like you could keep me in the dark
Somebody like you could break my heart, yeah yeah

I knew that I was fallin'
I could hear your heart beat callin'
I was hopin', you'd be mine before the night was through

Darlin', I could keep on loving you
If there's a chance to somehow break through
I must've had it wrong, I shoulda known

Somebody like you could break my heart
Somebody like you baby
Somebody like you I'm tellin' ya
Somebody like you could break my heart, yeah yeah

Guess I new right from the start that you were a pretender
But it was you who held my heart, I got love I wanna send you
Yeah, are you ready to surrender, oh yeah

Somebody like you could break my heart
Somebody like you could tear my world apart, oh yeah
Somebody like you could keep me in the dark
Somebody like you, baby
Somebody like you I'm tellin' ya
Somebody like you could break my heart
