Guess I got what I deserved 
Kept you waiting there too long, my love 
All that time without a word 
Didn`t know you`d think that I`d forget or I`d regret 
The special love I had for you, my baby blue 
 
All the days became so long 
Did you really think, I`d do you wrong? 
Dixie, when I let you go 
Thought you`d 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 
Don`t you know the times I`ve tried? 
 
Guess that`s 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.
