"I Told You So" lyrics - SOLANGE

Explosive...
Do-do-do-do-do...
Do-do-do-do-do...
Do-do-do-do-do, do-do...

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 too 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 from daily, just to make me smile, to plain necessary...

I know you 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;
This happily ever love shit just lasts 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...
