I Told You So

OK - When Randy Travis first came out with this song in 1987, I thought it was a classic country tune. And I'll admit, I'm not the biggest fan of people doing re-makes on songs that were perfect to begin with. But the lovely & talented Carrie Underwood proves that you CAN top perfection!

Suppose I called you up tonight and told you that I loved you

And suppose I said "I wanna come back home".

And suppose I cried and said "I think I finally learned my lesson"

And I'm tired a-spendin' all my time alone.

If I told you that I realized you're all I ever wanted

And it's killin' me to be so far away.

Would you tell me that you loved me too and would we cry together?

Or would you simply laugh at me and say:

"I told you so, oh I told you so

I told you some day you come crawling back and asking me to take you in

I told you so, but you had to go

Now I found somebody new and you will never break my heart in two again".

If I got down on my knees and told you I was yours forever

Would you get down on yours too and take my hand?

Would we get that old time feelin', would we laugh and talk for hours

The way we did when our love first began?

Would you tell me that you'd missed me too and that you'd been so lonely

And you waited for the day that I return.

And we'd live in love forever and that I'm your one and only

Or would you say the tables finally turned? Would you say:

"I told you so, oh I told you so

I told you some day you come crawling back and asking me to take you in

I told you so, but you have to go

Now I found somebody new and you will never break my heart in two again".

"Now I found somebody new and you will never break my heart in two again".
