It's hard to say
How long its been
But once upon a time
You were my best friend
I'm sorry I hurt you
But I loved him, loved him
You said I'd get hurt in the end

You tried to warn me
With good advice
Instead of listening
I paid the price, yes I did
You told me back then
You said he'll love you, leave you
You said his heart was cold as ice

And you were right, girl, yes
He played me for a fool
(You were right, girl)
Hmm, it all came true
(You were right, girl)
I know
I should have known it all along
(You were right, girl)
Yes, you were right and I was wrong
I thought you blamed him
For your mistakes
That all your put downs
Were just sour grapes
You told me back then
That they'll be lyin', cryin'
And it won't be his heart that breaks

And ooh
(You were right, girl)
You were right, girl
He played me for a fool
(You were right, girl)
Oh, it all came true
You were right, girl
Yes, I should have known it all along
(You were right, girl)
You were right, girl
You were right and I was wrong

Oh, what made me think
That I was different from you
That I could make him do
What he wouldn't do for you
Now you told me back then
I'd never change him, change him
But he'd change me before he's through
And, ooh...
(You were right, girl)
You were right, girl
He played me for a fool
He really did
(You were right, girl)
Well, it all came true
(You were right, girl)
You were so right
I should have known it all along
(You were right, girl)
Oh, yes, you were right and I was wrong, oh

(You were right, girl)
He really played me for a fool
(You were right, girl)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
It all came true
(You were right, girl)
Yeah, you were right, girl
I should have known it all along
(You were right, girl)
You were right, girlfriend
You were right and I was wrong
Woo, woo, woo
(You were right, girl)
You were right my, girl
(You were right, girl)
You were right my, girl
He played me for a great big fool
