Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I never saw the end in sight

Fools are kinda blind

Thought everything was going alright

But I was running out of time

[Verse 2]

'Cause you had one foot out the door

I swear I didn't see

But if you're really going away

Here's 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

[Chorus]

Take my words and read 'em every day

Keep 'em close by, don't you let 'em fade away

So you'll remember what I forgot to say

Write this down

[Verse 3]

I'll sign it at the bottom of the page

I'll swear under oath

'Cause every single word is true

And I think you need to know

[Verse 4]

So use it as a bookmark

Stick it on your 'frigerator door

Hang it in a picture frame up above

The mantle where you'll see it for sure

[Chorus]

And, 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

[Chorus]

Take my words and read 'em every day

Keep 'em close by, don't you let 'em fade away

So you'll remember what I forgot to say

Write this down

[Bridge]

You can find the chisel

I can find the stone

Folks'll be reading these words

Long after we're gone

[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

[Chorus]

Take my words and read 'em every day

Keep 'em close by, don't you let 'em fade away

So you'll remember what I forgot to say

Write this down

[Outro]

Oh, I love you and I don't want you to go

Baby, write this down
