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 know

Oh I had an awful dream

That you were needing someone else's

Love to take the place of mine

So I over came the distance

That challenged my persistence

I let my ego go and drowned my pride

And you ask why

You're such a special lady

Though I haven't told you lately

So let me be the first to let you know

Oh such a special lady

Though I haven't told you lately

So let me be the first to let you know

One more thing I need to say

Is that I need you every day

It's not the same 'til you come back to me

Girl I've loved you from conception

So if you follow my direction

I'll lead you where you always need to be

Right next to me oh

You're such a special lady

Though I haven't told you lately

So let me be the first to let you know

Oh such a special lady

Though I haven't told you lately

Let me be the first to let you know

Let me be the first to let you know

I appreciate the things you do for me

When you're loving me at night

When you're loving me at night

Let me be the first to let it show

I'd show the way to go

'Cuz every waking move is oh so right right

You're such a special lady

Though I haven't told you lately

But I wanna be the first one to let you know

Oh such a special lady

Though I haven't told you lately

Well let me be the first to let you know

Such a special lady

Haven't told you lately

First to let you know

Oh such a special lady

Though I haven't told you lately

Let me be the first to let you know

Such a special lady

Though I haven't told you lately

First to let you know
