[Intro]
Whenever you go, then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you wish you never left me
I say I told you so
I told you so
[Verse 1]
I used to think it mattered
How hard it was to cry
Crying's just a reflex now to you
Instead of trying to heal the scars
And the potholes in your life
Put a steel plate over them and that'll do
[Pre-Chorus]
And as I waited by the bathroom door
You're writing on the bathroom floor
Waiting for an answer that only I can give to you
[Chorus]
Whenever you go, then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you wish you never left me
I say I told you so
I told you so
Whenever you go, then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you're always gonna love me
I say I told you so
I told you so
[Verse 2]
The sun comes up and the blinds go down
To hide you from the light
The light inside your eyes that wants to shine
All of the Sunday morning reruns seem ridiculous like you
Sleeping everyday at different times
[Pre-Chorus]
You can run but you can't hide from me
I know who you used to be
And that's the person that I want to let me come inside
[Chorus]
Whenever you go, then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you wish you never left me
I say I told you so
I told you so
Whenever you go, then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you're always gonna love me
I say I told you so
I told you so
[Bridge]
Don't shut the door, don't shut me out
Don't make this be the last time that I see your hands
'Cause I want them to hold me
And I want you to show me
That this will be our only place
Without your face there's just no...
[Chorus]
Whenever you go, then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you wish you never left me
I say I told you so
I told you so
Whenever you go, then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you're always gonna love me
I say I told you so
I told you so
[Chorus]
Whenever you go, then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you wish you never left me
I say I told you so
I told you so
[Outro]
I say I told you so
I told you so
I say I told you so
I told you so
