Lyrics
You're saying things have changed
You don't feel the same
You need something you never had
Well, I could've told you that
CHOURS
I could've told you that I had dreams too
That weren't always just about you
And you say people want more than they have
Well, I could've told you that
So who will you blame
When the green grass you find is all the same?
When you realize you want what you had?
Well, I could've told you that
CHORUS
I could've told you that I had dreams too
That were'nt always about me and you
And you say people want more than they have
Well, I could've told you that
BRIDGE
You're standing there, convincing me
That this is how it has to be
Just let go of your past
How kind of you to promise me the sadness won't last
Well, Honey I could've told you that
CHORUS
I could've told you I wanted the moon
And red roses in perfect bloom
But I was happy knowing just what I had
I guess I could've told you that
Yeah, I could've told you that.
