He Ain’t Special (He’s Just The One I Love)
He was the last one I thought I’d be dreaming of
It’s not my plan
It’s nothing
I understand
I never saw him as more than a stranger
But in his eyes was more than I realized

And the nights went on forever
When he wasn’t by my side
I was holding out for someone else
And it took so long ’til I realized

He ain’t special
He's just the one I love
He ain’t special
The only one I’m dreaming of
My love is strong now
Now that he’s in my heart
Won’t be long now ’til he’s in my arms

I’ll never want
For anything better than what we got
Nothing could ever stop us
And I need to know forever
That i’ll be by his side
Ain’t nobody gonna love him the way I do
And you know it’s true
He ain’t special
He's just the one I love
He ain’t special
The only one I’m dreaming of
My love is strong now
Now that he’s in my heart
Won’t be long now ’til he’s in my arms

Thoughts are running through my head
What if he should fall for someone else
But if he should turn to me instead
I’m gonna keep him here all to myself

He ain’t special
He's just the one I love
He ain’t special
The only one I’m dreaming of
My love is strong now
Now that he’s in my heart
Won’t be long now ’til he’s in my arms
