I never saw the end in sight
Fools are kind of blind
Thought everything was going alright
But i was running out of time
'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
Take my words, read'em everday
Keep'em close by don't you let'em fade away
So you'll remember what i forgot to say
Write this down

I'll sign it at the bottom of this page
I'll swear under oath
'cause every single word is true
And i think you need to know
So use it as a bookmark

Repeat chorus:

Stick it on your 'frigerator door
Hang it in a picture frame up above the mantel
Where you'll see it for sure

Repeat chorus:

You can find a chisel, i can find a stone
Folks will be reading these words, long after we're gone

Oh i love you and i don't want you to go

Baby write this down
