I know you hate that I think this way; I know you think that it's wrong of me; I know that everything's strong today, But the longer we go, I know the fire will start to fade, fade, fade... I may be walking to long for this race; I know you said that you won't do the same... And so, I'm writing this song so the day I see I'm right, I'll play this record with a smirk while I say:
I told you so, I told you so... I told you so, I told you so...
I know you hate that I think this way; I could be wrong, but the chances ain't great... I know your calls, your sweet messages, Will turn lately just to make me smile to plain necessary... I know your vision your eyes just see me; But somehow time seems to make it blurry... And so, I'm writing this song so the day I see I'm right, I'll play this record while I cry and I say:
I told you so (ooh, baby), I told you so... I told you so, I told you so...
I know the newness of it all seems right, But baby I'm no fool, and I got pride; That happily ever love should just last a while... I know you think you love me But love ain't never stopped nobody from creeping around every once in a while, When things start to settle down; And so I won't look like a clown, I'ma call it now:
I told you so, I told you so... I told you so, unless you prove me wrong...
I told you so, I told you so... I told you so, I told you so...
