"I'm Already Taken" lyrics

"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...
