Special

James Harris / Janet Jackson / Rene Elizondo / Terry Lewis

Hey J
It's been a long time since
I've seen you last
A half and twenty-six years
(My time is fast)

I'm well
Though I've gone through
Some deep changes in my life
It has been easy
Oh no not for me

It's been difficult at times
Sometimes I'd sit down and cry
Ask God oh why
(Fair... what is?)

I know how you're feelin'
Same thing I did deal with
Ya not as alone
As you may feel
You see but oh

It catches up to us fast
We have to deal with our past
I know it's painful but
There you'll find specialness
'Cause everybody needs to feel real special

We need to remember
The love lies deep within ourselves
We have to want it so
It starts with us and no one else
We must learn
We're all born with specialness inside of us
I have the need to feel real special too

You see you can't run away from your pain
Because wherever you run there will be
You have to learn to water your spiritual garden
Then you will be free

I know how you're feelin'
Same thing I did deal with
Ya not as alone
As you may feel
You see but oh

It catches up to us fast
We have to deal with our past
I know it's painful but
There you'll find specialness
'Cause everybody needs to feel real special

We need to remember
The love lies deep within ourselves
We have to want it so
It starts with us and no one else
We must learn
We're all born with specialness inside of us
I have the need to feel real special too
