~ verse 1 ~
I never saw the end in sight, fools are kinda blind
thought everything was going all right, but I was running out of time
cause you have one foot out the door, I swear I didn't see
but if you'r really going away, heres some final words from me

~ Chorus ~
Baby write this down, take a little note
To remind you in case you didn't know
Tell yourself "I love you" and I don't want you to go
Write this down!
Take my words and read them everyday
Keep them close by, don't you let them fade away
so you'll remember what I forgot to say
Write this down!

~ Verse 2 ~

I'll sign it at the bottom of the page, I'll swear under oath
Every single word is true, and I think you need to know
So use it as a book mark, stick it on your frigerator door
Hang it in a picture frame up above the mantle, where you can see it for sure

~ Chorus ~

~ Verse 3 ~
You can find the chizzle, I can find the stone
folks'll be a-readin these words, long after we're gone

~ Chorus ~

~O I love you and I dont want you to go....... Baby write this down!
