Meant Something to Me
Tyler Hilton · Tyler Hilton [2000]
But baby, it meant something to me
And a night to remember might be
Just a Monday in September
But baby, it meant something to me
I know you try
It's gotta come from the heart
I know, I believe it's the hardest part of love
And cause you can remember
The 22nd day in November
But baby, you mean something to me
Well, I know you try
Baby, it's gotta come from the heart, yeah
Well, I know I believe it's the hardest part of love
And a kiss might be just a kiss to you
Baby, it meant something
Or maybe it meant nothing
But baby, it meant something to me
