Text: Jon B. Bonafide. Gone Before Light.

Verse 1
Well after the party's over
Black limousines they gather round our stance
Our secret romance (We are having)
Nobody knows you're with me
Cause you're a stranger to that world within me
So you said so softly on the stranger's bed

No I could never imagine your lips being that red
The smell of wine is on your breath
I trip out when I think of the things we did
And I wish I never, no I wish I never did

Chorus
Oh so special baby
(Oh special baby)
I'm so sorry lady
(So sorry lady)
Come into my life
Forever seemed to be one night
Oh so special baby
(Oh special baby)
I'm so sorry lady
(So sorry lady)
Come into my life
And you were gone before light

Verse 2
Well after the morning's over
Feeling so bad and sober, I don't care
(I don't care)
Cause you're not here
(You're not here)
Feeling the fire within me
And the pulse of last night's heart beat
Still echoes within me
I can feel your skin, oh lady

No I could never imagine a love affair like this
So secretive when we're kissing
When I'm with you baby
'Cause you're a special lady

Chorus
Oh so special baby
(Oh special baby)
I'm so sorry lady
(So sorry lady)
Come into my life
Forever seemed to be one night
Oh so special baby
(Oh special baby)
I'm so sorry lady
(So sorry lady)
Came into my life
And you were gone before light

Bridge
(Moved in some sense of direction towards you...
You called my name and I knew that was you in the corner
With the cognac eyes and a body that seduced me
And I said...)

Chorus
Oh so special baby
(Oh special baby)
I'm so sorry lady
(So sorry lady)
Come into my life
Forever seemed to be one night
Oh special baby
(Oh special baby)
I'm so sorry lady
(So sorry lady)
Came into my life
And you were gone before light
