I Should Have Known Better

I should have known better with a girl like you.
That I would love ev'rything that do,
And I do hey, hey, hey, and I do.

Whoa, oh, I never realized what a kiss could be,
This could only happen to me,
Can't you see, can't you see?

That when I tell you that I love you, oh.
You're gonna say you love me too, oh.
And when I ask you to be mihihihine
You're gonna say you love me too.

So oh, I should've realized a lotta things before.
If this is love you gotta give me more,
Give me more, hey, hey, hey, give me more.

Whoa, whoa, I never realized what a kiss could be,
This could only happen to me,
Can't you see, can't you see?

That when I tell you that I love you, oh.
You're gonna say you love me too, oh.
And when I ask you to be mihihihine
You're gonna say you love me too.

You love me too. You love me too.

"I Should Have Known Better" is a song composed by John Lennon (credited to Lennon-McCartney), and originally released by the Beatles on the United Kingdom version of A Hard Day's Night, their soundtrack for the film of the same name.

The song is performed in the train compartment scene of A Hard Day's Night. It was in fact filmed in a van, with crew members rocking the vehicle to fake the action of a train in motion.

An orchestrated version of the song conducted by George Martin appears on the North American version of the album.
