Told You

[Verse 1]

The minute I met you

I said "Give me some time"

I'll have you laughin' and fallin' in love

'Til you tell the whole world that you're mine

I know it don't make sense

That a girl like you

With all of your beautiful, all of your wonder

Would ever end up with a hard-headed fool

[Chorus]

Girl, I told you

That I'd love you forever

And I'll hold you in my arms and I'll never let go

I'll be standing there, girl, when you need me

Every morning you'll wake up and see

I do what I say and I say what I mean

One day we'll look back and girl, I won't say that I told you, yeah

[Verse 2]

I said our shadow

Would look good on my wall

I said your clothes would look better girl

If they were scattered all up and down my hall

And it took a lot of tryin' (A whole lot of tryin')

To steal away your heart

But I told you girl, I won't ever give up

If I got to, I'll steal you the stars

[Chorus]

Girl, I told you

That I'd love you forever

And I'll hold you in my arms and I'll never let go

I'll be standing there, girl, when you need me

Every morning you'll wake up and see

I do what I say and I say what I mean

One day we'll look back and girl, I won't say that I told you, yeah

[Bridge]

I think you know when we get to heaven

Walkin' down streets of gold

We'll still be singin' and dancin' and lovin'

It's gon' be your hand that I hold

[Chorus]

Girl, I told you (Yeah girl, I told you)

That I'd love you forever

And I'll hold you (Yeah girl, I'll hold you)

In my arms and I'll never let go (Never let go)

I'll be standing there, girl, when you need me (Right when you need me)

Every morning you'll wake up and see (Wake up and see)

I do what I say and I say what I mean

One day we'll look back and girl, I won't say that I told you (Oh)

Yeah girl, I told you (Yeah girl, I told you)

Girl, I told you

Yeah girl, I told you, yeah, oh-oh
