Guess I got what I deserved
Kept you waiting there too long, my love
All that time without a word
Didnt know youd think that Id forget or Id regret
The special love I had for you, my baby blue

All the days became so long
Did you really think, Id do you wrong?
Dixie, when I let you go
Thought youd realize that I would know
I would show the special love I have for you, my baby blue

What can I do, what can I say
Except I want you by my side
How can I show you, show me the way
Dont you know the times Ive tried?

Guess thats all I have to say
Except the feeling just grows stronger every day
Just one thing before I go
Take good care, baby, let me know, let it grow
The special love you have for me, my Dixie, dear.
