Write This Down

George Strait · 50 Number Ones [MCA Nashville] [2004]

(Kent M. Robbins - Dana Hunt)



I never saw the end in sight, fools are kinda blind

Thought everything was going all right, but I was runnin' out of time

'Cause you have one foot out the door, I swear I didn't see

But if you'r really goin' 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.



--- Instrumental ---



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

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:

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.



You can find a chisel, I can find the stone

Folks'll be a-readin 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.



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.



Oh, I love you and I dont want you to go

Baby, write this down!...
