Lyrics
Told U so
Ended in tears broken hearts messed up minds
No one to turn to, hide behind closed blinds
Reach for the bottle, drown out your pain
Turn on the telly, melt down your brain
I would say I?m sorry but really I?m not
I would dry your eyes but I can?t bear the snot
You see life is simple you reap what you sew
And always remember I told you so
Save your snivelling for someone who cares
The vicar will listen he?ll read you some prayers
Hey don?t worry I?m sure you?ll be fine
You just need one more large glass of wine
They say there?s no justice in this twisted life
But I get so much pleasure from twisting the knife
Bad things tend to happen in threes
A predictable end for you her and me
I would say I?m sorry but really I?m not
I would dry your eyes but I can?t bear the snot
You see life is simple you reap what you sew
And always remember
If only you had listened to my advice
But you made all your choices and didn?t think twice
I hope you remember what you had and let go
You know I hate to say it but I told you so
Guitar
I know it ain?t pretty I know it ain?t fair
If you?d only had listened then I would have been there
What a shame you didn?t now your all alone
Not even the dog wants to welcome you home
I would say I?m sorry but really I?m not
I would dry your eyes but I can?t bear the snot
You see life is simple you reap what you sew
And always remember I told you so x3
