They Were Right

They said, "just when you love her so

That she will up and let you go"

And you know

They were right

They said you'd take my love from me

Leaving only memories

And you know

They were right

They warned me, and begged me

To leave you alone

Because you've broken every heart

That you have ever known

They said my heart would still be true

While you were out with someone new

And you know They were right

And you know They were right

And you know They were right

They warned him, they begged him

To leave you alone

Because you've broken every heart

That you have ever known

They told me after you had gone

My wounded love would still hold on

And you know

They were right
