The Prize Fight - I Hate To Say, "I Told You So" lyrics

rate me

We train all our lives

I stay in practice,

And keep my focus

But oh, I know…

That the way I roll

The way I show myself on the outside

It may seem cold,

But I have only the best of intentions

As I make them known,

You try and show yourself to a trained eye

As in control,

And always strong and self-independent

But you cannot do this on your own

(You've tried before and you're still alone)

And I don't have the strength that I had before

(Cause I've walked this road and I know where it goes)

You're too afraid to say it

And to ashamed to admit that

She's leading you on your way back home,

And taking you nowhere

You're here for my advice

But when I give it,

You refuse to take it

And oh, I know…

I may be wrong

But at least I showed myself on the outside

As being strong

By holding on to my convictions

And so I pace myself

And keep in mind that I have no way out if I

Leave you stranded on your own

You cannot do this on your own

(You've tried before and you're still alone)

And I don't have the strength that I had before

(Cause I've walked this road and I know where it goes)

You're too afraid to say it

And to ashamed to admit that

She's leading you on your way back home

And taking you nowhere

So I...

Left you passed out on the floor

And I…

Know it's not my fault, but I

Know you won't be alone for long

So I...

Wait, wait just a minute

Then make, make my commitment

For better or worse, I'm here for good

You cannot do this on your own

(You've tried before and you're still alone)

And I don't have the strength that I had before

(Cause I've walked this road and I know where it goes)

You're too afraid to say it

And to ashamed to admit that

She's leading you on your way back home,

(Cause I've walked this road and I know where it goes)

Down the path that we both know

Is taking you nowhere
