Lyrics
I DO TAKE YOU
I DO TAKE YOU
AND LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND
TODAY I MAKE YOU MINE.
I DO TAKE YOU
AND WHEN WE LEAVE FROM HERE,
IT WILL BE AS ONE, FOR ALL THE YEARS TO COME
BEFORE WE MET I KNEW YOU FROM A DREAM IN MY HEART
LOVE CAME TRUE THAT DAY, AND BABY HERE WE ARE
I COULDN'T IMAGINE HOW SWEET IT WOULD BE
BUT I KNOW I'M NOT DREAMING, THIS IS IT FOR ME
FROM THIS DAY FORWARD, I PROMISE YOU
I DO TAKE YOU
AND LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND
TODAY I MAKE YOU MINE.
I DO TAKE YOU
AND WHEN WE LEAVE FROM HERE,
IT WILL BE AS ONE, FOR ALL THE YEARS TO COME
I'LL CHERISH EACH DAY WE HAVE
BECAUSE I WAITED SO LONG
I'LL TAKE EACH MOMENT WITH YOU
AND MAKE IT MY HOME
TOGETHER WE HAVE, ALL THAT WE NEED
OUR LOVE KEEPS GROWING
GOD PLANTED THE SEED
FROM THIS DAY FORWARD, I PROMISE YOU
I DO TAKE YOU
AND LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND
TODAY I MAKE YOU MINE.
I DO TAKE YOU
AND WHEN WE LEAVE FROM HERE,
IT WILL BE AS ONE, FOR ALL THE YEARS TO COME
