I'm Already Taken

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...
