I Love You, I Do

Story Behind The Song

Debbie began writing the lyric for her own wedding. When she ran out of time, she asked Powers to finish it. Steve, the Everyting Man, wrote the music, created the arrangement, produced the recording...all in time for the Big Night...when Debbie sang for it for her new husband.

Song Description

Though the lyric and vocal are presented by a female here, this is a universal love song for either male or female singer...preferably sung to the First Dance. The composer caught the tempo and mood of that moment in a slow rock anthem-like mood.

Lyrics

I Love You, I Do

Words: Debbie Kanaan,
Powers McElhone, Music: Steve Lewis


I Love You
And I see it in your eyes
And I feel your love in ev'ry touch and ev'ry smile
I LOVE YOU, I DO

I Love You
You're the meaning of my life,
You're the reason I'm alive to make this vow tonight
And I LOVE YOU, I DO....I DO....I DO

In your arms I know my heart is home
And in your eyes I see where I belong
I believe in angels since you came into my life
To be the One....to be the One

I Love You
You're my lover, my best friend
And our love will never end until the end of time
I LOVE YOU, I DO....I DO....I DO

In your arms I know my heart is home
And in your eyes I see where I belong
And I believe in angels since you came into my life
To be the One....to be the One

[INSTRUMENTAL]
....I DO....I DO

And in your arms I know my heart is home
And in your eyes I see where I belong
I believe in angels since you came into my life
To be the One.... ....You're the one I turn to
You're the one whose heart belongs to me
Your love means everything to me

I Love You
We will never be apart
Hand in hand and heart to heart until the end of time
I LOVE YOU, I DO....I DO....I DO
