So your new love let your feelings sad and blue
And it broke your heart in two to see him go
Now you know the lonely nights that I went through
And I'm glad that I can say I told you so
When you cry yourself to sleep me
Think of all the things I told you long ago
You know how it feels to be the used to be and I'm glad that I can say I told you so
[ steel - guitar ]
Now that someone's broke your heart you realize
That the time has come to reap just what you sowed
For somebody else told you the same old lie and I'm glad that I can say I told you so
When you miss the happiness you'll never find
Think of me each time the bitter teardrops flow
But you had no mercy on this heart of mine and I'm glad that I can say I told you so
