I Told You So

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I hate to say "I told you so"

Though you deserve it, because you know

You left me crying for someone new

But all the heartache came back to you

Now you're begging me to take you back

I told you so, I told you so

When you were king and riding high

You thought your new love would never die

While you were laughing, I cried alone

You wouldn't hear from me a bomb

Now you're begging me to take you back

I told you so, I told you so

I think you're so, I know you should've reap

I told you so, I told you so

You are alone and look before you leap

I told you so, I told you so

You can't win when you're a jumpin' jack

I told you so, I told you so

I hate to say, I told you so

We lived in closely and said it slow

When you were leaving I told you then

You're needing ever come back again

So let me tell you with a last goodbye

I told you so, I told you so

So let me, let me tell you with a last goodbye

I told you so, I told you so
