|
I never saw the end in sight |
|
Fools are kind of blind |
|
Thought everything was going alright |
|
But I was running out of time |
|
'Cause you had one foot out the door |
|
I swear I didn't see |
|
But if you're really going away |
|
Here's some final words from me |
|
Baby, write this down, take a little note |
|
To remind you in case you didn't know |
|
Tell yourself I love you and I don't want you to go |
|
Write this down |
|
Take my words and read 'em everyday |
|
Keep 'em close by, don't you let 'em fade away |
|
So you'll remember what I forgot to say |
|
Write this down |
|
I'll sign it at the bottom of this page |
|
I'll swear under oath |
|
'Cause every single word is true |
|
And I think you need to know |
|
So use it as a bookmark |
|
Stick it on your 'frigerator door |
|
Hang it in a picture frame up above the mantel |
|
Where you'll see it for sure |
|
Baby, write this down, take a little note |
|
To remind you in case you didn't know |
|
Tell yourself I love you and I don't want you to go |
|
Write this down |
|
An' take my words and read 'em everyday |
|
Keep 'em close by, don't you let 'em fade away |
|
So you'll remember what I forgot to say |
|
Write this down |
|
You can find a chisel |
|
I can find a stone |
|
Folks will be reading these words |
|
Long after we're gone |
|
Baby, write this down, take a little note |
|
To remind you in case you didn't know |
|
Tell yourself I love you and I don't want you to go |
|
Write this down |
|
Take my words and read 'em everyday |
|
Keep 'em close by, don't you let 'em fade away |
|
So you'll remember what I forgot to say |
|
Write this down |
|
Oh I love you and I don't want you to go |
|
Baby, write this down |
