Eternal Love Unveiled: Marilyn Hucek's 'i do' Meaning
Lyrics
There you were
Expressing the discovery of someone's presence.
Out of the corner of my eye
Noticing the person indirectly, perhaps unexpectedly.
I couldn't let time pass us by, oh
Feeling the urgency to not let time pass without taking action.
I left my number on the receipt
Leaving contact information, a bold move for the speaker.
Not a classic move for me
Acknowledging that leaving the number is uncharacteristic.
Then you came and rescued me
Being rescued by the person, implying a positive impact.
From the darkest places, oh
Highlighting that love can emerge from challenging situations.
Our love is blind our love is kind
Describing the unconditional and benevolent nature of love.
You took a chance and called my line
Recalling the risk the person took by calling the speaker.
And I know, one day we'll grow old
Envisioning a future where the couple grows old together.
And have each other
Emphasizing the idea of companionship in old age.
Our love is full our love is bright
Reiterating the richness and luminosity of their love.
I can rest assured you will be mine
Expressing confidence that the person will belong to the speaker.
And we'll grow older together
Anticipating growing older together as a couple.
I know it'll last forever
Believing in the enduring nature of their love.
Oh, oh I do
Declaring commitment and possibly marriage ("I do").
Some call it fate
Acknowledging the role of fate in their connection.
It doesn't matter what we believe
Stating that beliefs about fate don't matter as long as they are together.
As long as you are next to me, oh
Expressing the importance of the person's presence.
If our destiny is this
Accepting destiny and foreseeing a romantic future.
Then we will touch our lips and kiss
Imagining a symbolic kiss on the altar.
On the altar and after this, oh
Envisioning a future together after a significant event.
Our love is blind our love is kind
Reiterating the qualities of their love.
You took a chance and called my line
Recalling the risk the person took by calling the speaker.
And I know, one day we'll grow old
Reiterating the vision of growing old together.
And have each other
Emphasizing the idea of companionship in old age.
Our love is full our love is bright
Reiterating the richness and luminosity of their love.
I can rest assured you will be mine
Expressing confidence that the person will belong to the speaker.
And we'll grow older together
Anticipating growing older together as a couple.
I know it'll last forever
Believing in the enduring nature of their love.
Oh, oh I do
Declaring commitment and possibly marriage ("I do").
I do, I do
Reaffirming the commitment with a repeated "I do."
(INSTRUMENTAL)
Instrumental break in the music.
(I do, I do)
Repeating the "I do" in an instrumental section.
(I do, I do)
Continuation of the instrumental section with "I do."
(I do, I do)
-Our love is blind our love is kind
Reiterating the qualities of their love.
You took a chance and called my line
Recalling the risk the person took by calling the speaker.
And I know, one day we'll grow old
Reiterating the vision of growing old together.
And have each other
Emphasizing the idea of companionship in old age.
Our love is full our love is bright
Reiterating the richness and luminosity of their love.
I can rest assured you will be mine
Expressing confidence that the person will belong to the speaker.
And we'll grow older together
Anticipating growing older together as a couple.
I know it'll last forever
Believing in the enduring nature of their love.
I do
Final affirmation of commitment and possibly marriage ("I do").
