Special Girl

Into each life a little sunlight want to shine
Let me tell you fortune life that once was mine

She was a special girl
She meant the world to me
And I gave her everything

When I found her I’d been looking everywhere
And when I lost her I was lost beyond despair

She was a special girl
She meant the world to me
And I gave her everything

Dreams are hard to touch
Could it be I love her too much?....

She was a special girl
And she meant the world to me
And I gave her everything

Bottom line is, she was fine in every way
And it’s not with hesitation that I say

She was a special girl
And she meant the world to me
And I gave her everything

Dreams they come and go
But thoughts, like love, will always grow....

(special girl)
(special girl)....
