I Knew You Were Trouble
Taylor Swift/Musicfire.in Lyrics

Once upon time
In the past, a significant period ago

A few mistakes ago
Referring to a time when some errors were made

I was in your sights
You were aiming at me or had your attention focused on me

You got me alone
You managed to separate or isolate me from others

You found me
You discovered me or located me

You found me
You discovered me or located me

You found me
You discovered me or located me

I guess you didn't care
I assume that you had no concern for me

And I guess I liked that
And I suppose that I enjoyed that fact

And when I fell hard
And when I deeply and quickly developed feelings for you

You took a step back
You moved away from me or showed disinterest

Without me, without me, without me
Without my presence or involvement

And he's long gone
And he is far removed from the situation

When he's next to me
Even when he is physically near me

And I realize the blame is on me
And I understand that I am at fault for the situation

'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Because I had a feeling that you were going to cause problems when you arrived

So shame on me now
I am now obligated to feel ashamed because of my actions

Flew me to places I'd never been
You took me to new and exciting locations

Till you put me down
Until you ended the relationship or hurt me emotionally

Oh I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Oh, I had a feeling you would bring difficulties from the very beginning

Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Now I am in a difficult and painful situation

No apologies
You haven't expressed any regret or sorrow for your actions

He'll never see you cry
He will never witness your sadness or tears

Pretend he doesn't know
Act as if he is unaware of your feelings or the impact of his actions

That he's the reason why
That he is the cause of your distress

You're drowning, you're drowning, you're drowning
You are struggling and overwhelmed

And I heard you moved on
I learned that you have moved on from me

From whispers on the street
From rumors and gossip circulated amongst people

A new notch in your belt
A new accomplishment or conquest for you

Is all I'll ever be
I am nothing more than a fleeting accomplishment for you

And now I see, now I see, now I see
And now I understand or comprehend the situation more clearly

He was long gone
He had left the situation long before

When he met me
Before he and I even got involved

And I realize the joke is on me
And I see that I was foolish or gullible in this situation

Trouble, trouble, trouble
Repeated phrase highlighting the difficulties and pain caused by the situation

When your saddest fear comes creeping in
When your greatest fear begins to slowly appear or become real

That you never loved me or her or anyone or anything
That you were incapable of truly loving anyone or anything
