"Told You So" Lyrics:
I never jumpted in and rescued you,
but I wanted to
I didn't tell you which way to go,
'cause I thought you'd know
You had a problem with your new found
wealth, you brought it on yourself
I never told you I told you so, but I told you so

Have to let it go
It's time to let it go
Now I can't believe
It took so long to leave
Perhaps one day I'll grieve
Or I never will

I never told you I agreed with you,
I don't think I do
I wasn't sure quite what the whole thing
meant, but I'm glad you went
I never thought that it could be painless,
but it is I guess
I had myself fooled into needing you,
did I fool you too?

Have to let it go
it's time to let it go
Now I can't believe
It took so long to leave
Perhaps one day I'll grieve
Or I never will

A viral infection that can incubate for years
Caused by affection fallen deep into arrears
No medication to procure
Makes me pure, there's no cure, I am sure

I never mentioned how I've prayed for you,
and now I've paid for you
I never said that I would wait for you,
it's too late for you

Have to let it go
it's time to let it go
Now I can't believe
It took so long to leave
Perhaps one day I'll grieve
Or I never will

    Cool story bro.

  • Every time we lose a chance to save a dear one from whatever pulls them into their eventual demise--either situational or more permanent--I think of this song.

    I listened to this song on a loop when I lost one of my dearest friends to her final act--a successful suicide. Understated, it was a most confusing time. I think that's why I still NEED music--like some people need things, or praise, or even food. Music satisfies, rewards, and feeds souls.

    Thank you, Barenaked Ladies. I owe you.

  • @19craiggy87 I can see that... Both from Canada, too. Funny and freaky

  • Im a huge BNL fan always have been but umm does anyone else see that he kinda looks like harold from red green sometimes in this vid? lol

  • When I was a kid my brother bought the CD. I heard this song so often when I was a kid. Listening to this now, I finally understand it. Finally! So true.

  • most definitely need an acoustic album, crazy good stuff man

  • Stunt is amazing.

  • One time my mom and sister stood behind you guys in a line in Toronto. True story.

  • GREAT!
