A little third grade hand wrote I love you on a note of yellow paper
And sent it to the front row to a little blonde-haired girl
The blonde-haired girl just opened it and read it to herself
And 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 blonde-haired girl
Whos' the mother of our little blonde-haired 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...
