My little third grade hand wrote I love you On a note of yellow paper And sent it to the front of the room to a little blonde-haired girl The blonde-haired 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 to 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 to 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 Who's now 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 to late I love your daddy, son So you'll just have to wait I'm already taken You spoke up to late I love your daddy, son So you'll just have to wait
