my little third grade hand wrote i love you
on a note of yellow paper
and sent it to the front of the row to a little blondehaired girl
the blondehaired girl just opened it and read it to herself
i was so embarrassed when she turned around and said
i’m already taken
you spoke up too late
i love somebody else
so you’ll just have to wait
the years flew by so quickly
and there we were in junior high
i realized that i still loved her so
so i called her up and told her exactly how i felt
then she said there’s something that you really ought to know
i’m already taken
you spoke up too late
i love somebody else
so you’ll just have to wait
so wait i did and never changed my love for that little blondehaired girl
who’s now the mother of our little blondehaired boy
who’s to our hearts so close
i hate to think how fast he’s growing up
last night i overheard them as she tucked him into bed
he said mommy will you marry me
and this is what she said
i’m already taken
you spoke up too late
i love your daddy son
so you’ll just have to wait
i’m already taken
you spoke up too late
i love your daddy son
so you’ll just have to wait
