Lyrics

Special

[Verse 1]

If I could take away all the pain you ever been through

I'm hoping that I would be the one you would wanna run too

Cause there is no doubt in my mind that you're the one for me

Now I got to get the whole world to see

How much it means to me

[Chorus]

We didn't get married (But it feels so special, Yes it feels so special)

This ain't a baby (But it feels so special, Yes it feels so special)

Didn’t hit the lottery (But it feels so special, Yes it feels so special)

That's what you mean to me (Cause you are so special, Yes you are so special)

[Verse 2]

You're like a diamond in a cave that's never been seen

And you're the most beautiful place I go to when I dream (When I dream)

And if the world turned on you I would be there to pull you through

Cause can't nobody ever take your place (Yeaaah)

[Chorus]

We didn't get married (But it feels so special, Yes it feels so special)

This ain't a baby (But it feels so special, Yes it feels so special)

Didn’t hit the lottery (But it feels so special, Yes it feels so special)

That's what you mean to me (Cause you are so special, Yes you are so special)

[Verse 3]

You're all to me, the perfect sea and I can't be without your love

Girl you take me there now I can reach the stars

There's no doubt about it you got my heart now and I'm all yours

And I'm ready to be all that you asked for!

[Chorus]

We didn't get married (But it feels so special, Yes it feels so special)

This ain't a baby (But it feels so special, Yes it feels so special)

Didn’t hit the lottery (But it feels so special, Yes it feels so special)

That's what you mean to me (Cause you are so special, Yes you are so special)
