Could Have Told You So

Is that all you wanted, well

all you had to do was ask

I would have told you the

truth from the beginning

I would have said, 

"hell no" and 

got rid of that

mask...

See, I could keep on

but what good would it do

you kept telling me that you got me

but the truth is

the only one you got is 

you

and I'm just a 

little something on the side

waiting for you 
to decide

We did this before

you, me and I hardly 

made it through

I know it's tough

for you but

seems like I'm the one

who's hurtin' and

you haven't got a clue

I'm pullin' back again

it's so hard to pretend

it's like two steps up

and one to throw 

away..

can't we just make it

to the end

You said you're sorry 

"if I hurt you"

but I'm still not ready 

to 

desert you

I'm sure you know

maybe it's time

to go

maybe I should have known

maybe you should 

have grown

Like I said, had you asked

from the start

I would have told you

if you're just gonna

let me go

then I

could have told

you so....
