Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEF GHIJKL IMNOPQ RRSTUV EAOWRO XYZA2B2C2Nelly I fell for you and I was waiting for the right time to tell you | A |
I was videoing the bride while she was putting on make up | B |
You were lying back on the bed and leaning on your elbows | C |
And you were garbed in a white sleeveless dress | D |
I couldn t help paying attention to you because of your beauty | E |
This was distracting me from my work but I didn't mind it | F |
- | |
You were clutching a nosegay and you asked me to take your picture | G |
The men left the room when the bride was ready to get dressed | H |
As I was leaving the room you said to me Ba bye Marlon | I |
I went outside and took pictures of the bridesmaids | J |
You were filled with excitement when you came out of the house | K |
And we travelled with the bride to the botanical park | L |
- | |
I was enraptured by you when you sang at the wedding reception | I |
You held the wireless microphone with one hand | M |
And you waited for the playing of the instrumental to begin | N |
I froze for a moment when I heard your melodious voice | O |
Even though nobody expected you to perform well | P |
You displayed self confidence and you sang like a diva | Q |
- | |
I stood there in amazement with my camcorder rolling | R |
The guests cheered and applauded as you began to sing | R |
And they stopped you and told you to start over again | S |
The MC instructed the DJ to replay the music | T |
You sang even sweeter than you did the first time | U |
How I wanted to dance with you when you took the floor | V |

Nelly I was well aware of your fondness for me | E |
You didn't know that I loved you and I wasn't ready to tell you | A |
I hid my lust for you because I didn't come on to schoolgirls | O |
Even though my heart was aching for your love | W |
My conscience guided me and I did the right thing | R |
I went away and we didn't see each other for three years | O |
- | |
You gave me your telephone number when I came back | X |
But you didn't tell me that you were in a relationship | Y |
I was jealous when I found out that you had a boyfriend | Z |
You still don't know that I love you so I'm telling you now | A2 |
When I look at your photos and watch the video | B2 |
I remember the night in December you thrilled my heart | C2 |
