George Strait – You’re Something Special to Me Lyrics

As I hold you close tonight, hear what I say
There’s no doubt it’s love, alright ‘cause I’ve never felt this way
An angel is what you are, and now I see
You’re not just someone else, you’re something special to me

Every man has a dream and you made mine come true
How it happened, I don’t know or care, I’m just happy I found you
Wrapped in the arms of love is where I’ll be
For all the world to see, you’re something special to me

Every man has a dream and you made mine come true
How it happened, I don’t know or care, I’m just happy I found you
Wrapped in the arms of love is where I’ll be
For all the world to see, you’re something special to me
It’s all such a mystery, you’re something special to me
