(Could've Said) I Told You So

Could've said I told you so

You would never listen though

I tried to tell you once or twice

You would never take advice

Could've said I told you so

You would never listen though

I tried to tell you once or twice

You would never take advice from me

I woke up this morning and much to my surprise

A letter on her pillow said she found some other guy

I thought I was dreamin'

And I thought that she cared

But when I looked around the room

She wasn't anywhere

I didn't know she'd got her things together

And I didn't know she had a heart of ice

And now my friends admit they knew about her

I guess I should have followed their advice

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life

Never make a pretty woman your wife

So from my personal point of view

Get an ugly girl to marry you

Could've said I told you so

You would never listen though

I tried to tell you once or twice

You would never take advice

The letter said "I'm sorry, I guess I'll never learn

I found myself another man with lots of cash to burn

It may not last forever, but right up to that day

He's gonna be my band of gold until I walk away"

And now I've got to get myself together

Well, I didn't know she had a heart of ice

'Cause now my friends admit they knew about her

Well, I guess I should have followed their advice

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life

Never make a pretty woman your wife

So from my personal point of view

Get an ugly girl to marry you

I'm gonna find someone whose heart is in their soul

Not just a pretty face that leaves me in the cold

Someone who really needs me like needed her

And if she should ever call, well, I'll be the one who has it all

I woke up this morning and much to my surprise

A letter on her pillow said she found some other guy

I thought I was dreamin'

And I thought that she cared

But when I looked around the room

She wasn't anywhere

I didn't know she'd got her things together

And I didn't know she had a heart of ice

And now my friends admit they knew about her

Well, I guess I should have followed their advice

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life

Never make a pretty woman your wife
