Question
my special love or my special love to you

Answer
Hello Jim,

The first and most obvious one one that comes to mind is "My Special Love", recorded by Atlantic Starr for their 1991 album "Love Crazy".

******

Apart from that one, there were the following......


"Special Love", a different song, was recorded by LaToya Jackson for her 1981 album, "My Special Love".....

What can I do to make him my special love
What can I do to make him my special love

Should I tell him that I need him to keep him by my side
I want him to spend his life with me
'Cause he's my special love, special love

What should I say to make him look my way
What should I say to make him look and stay

Tell me why
Tell me what should I do
Tell me why
Tell me what can I do
Tell me why

Special love


There was also another song called "Special Love", this time recorded by Crystal Lewis......

I try not to cry when I'm hurting inside
In my eyes you'd see my frown
'Cause I'd know I let you down
But you mean more to me
Than just another man
I find in my eyes you'll see
I have found my special love

You're so special
Special love in my heart you'll see my true feelings inside
But don't you know I can't let go
Of the things I shouldn't hold
But with you holding me
I can see through my tears
And for now I'll know I'm wrapped up in Special Love


And then there was "Very Special Love" by Maureen McGovern......

I never believed in love
I was deceived by love
I never had much luck with lovers before
And I couldn't compete
I seemed just part of the street
To be walked on by everyone but then

Then I found a very special love in you
It's a feeling that's so totally new
Over and over, it's burning inside
I found a very special love in you
And it almost breaks me in two
Squeezing me tighter
But I'm never gonna let go

You're not like the rest
I know you're one of the best
You give more than you should and take nothing in return (in return)
Stay always with me
And I always will be
The one person that you can count on always to love you

And I found a very special love in you
It's a feeling that's so totally new
Over and over, it's burning inside
I found a very special love in you
And it almost breaks me in two
Squeezing me tighter
But I'm never gonna let go
But I...

Found a very special love in you
It's a feeling that's so totally new
Over and over, it's burning inside
I found a very special love in you
And it almost breaks me in two
Squeezing me tighter
But I'm never gonna let go
But I'm never gonna let you go


Glad to be of help. Cheers..........Mel.
