Baby, for every time that you felt love
Was taken for granted and I didn't care
Well, these are just a few words to let you know how I feel
Hey, yeah, let me be the first to let you knowOh, I had an awful dream
That you were needing someone else's
Love to take the place of mineSo I over came the distance
That challenged my persistence
I let my ego go and drowned my pride

Though I haven't told you lately
So let me be the first to let you knowOh, such a special lady
