Lyrics
A Special Day
Verse
I wrote a little note to you.
I left it on your bed so you would know that I?d been there.
What you didn?t see, is really what you mean to me.
I just wanted a special day
Verse
I took your father?s favorite car.
I drove it up the coast. Perhaps I went a bit too far.
What I didn?t know he really couldn?t take a joke.
I just wanted a special day
Chorus
I?m sure your friends have said, to you ?that boy?s a flake?.
You never know just what I?ll do
The bottom line of course is that
?I still love you?
Verse
You saw my picture on TV
The replay showed the cops treated me most professionally.
What was I to do? I really didn?t have a clue.
I just wanted a special day.
Chorus
I?m sure your friends have said, to you ?that boy?s a flake?.
You never know just what I?ll do
The bottom line of course is that
?I still love you?
Verse
I rode my skateboard down the hill
and when I jumped the rail I flapped my arms and flew away.
What they didn?t see was really what you meant to me
I was having a special day, a special day, a special day
