I Told Ya So

INTRO

All I'm askin' is a moment of your time.
Just a drink and hidey ho.
You may say no--
But I'm thinkin' it's a go,
and you'll have to just forgive me
if I say, I told ya so.

VERSE 1

It seems like another lifetime;
a dream that I once dreamed.
I know it wasn't me and you,
but I swear it's how it seemed.

CHORUS A

Oh, the bedframe was in splinters,
just kindling for the winters shiverin' cold;
and the mattress was on fire,
combusted by desire--
for our love flowed like
a lake of melted snow,
and don't you know ...
I told ya so,
I told ya so.

INST. BREAK

VERSE 2

Now your touch is just as cold
as the empty fire place,
and I can't believe that only
flames were all that burned so bold.

CHORUS B

Yeah, the bedframe was in splinters,
just kindling for the winters shiverin' cold;
and the mattress was on fire,
combusted by desire.
For our love flowed like
a lake of melted snow.
I'm sure ya know--
I told ya so,
I told ya so.

CODA

Then the fire burned out,
and the love was gone.
Yeah, I know, I told ya so.
But why it didn't last,
I don't know.
Oh, baby, I don't know ...
I don't know.
