[Intro]
Say I do I do I do
Say I do I do I do
[Verse 1]
Never thought that love could make me fall
Never thought I needed love at all
Took me a while to finally realize
That your love was all I needed
[Pre-Chorus]
To complete my life
Will you make this sacrifice?
It's hard to believe
But your love has turned my around
I can make a commitment now
[Chorus]
Say I do I do I do
If you really love me
Say I do I do I do
If you want to be with me
Say I do I do I do
'Cause I really want to be with you so much
Say I do I do I do
[Verse 2]
Found myself searching what was in my heart
Scared me when I saw us drifting apart
Even though I didn't know any other way
I don't want to lose you
I want you to stay
[Pre-Chorus]
To complete my life
Will you make this sacrifice?
It's hard to believe
That your love has turned me around
Are you ready for love? I am now
[Chorus]
Say I do I do I do
If you really love me
Say I do I do I do
If you want to be with me
Say I do I do I do
'Cause I really want to be with you, oh oh
Say I do I do I do
[Bridge]
Oh baby, my lady
I can't wait to give you my heart
My lady, sweet lady
Give me your hand in love, love, love
Oh baby I
[Chorus]
Say I do I do I do
Oh, oh, oh
Say I do I do I do
'Cause I really want to be with you, girl
Say I do I do I do
[Outro]
If you want me girl like I want you
Why don't you say I do I do I do
If you need me girl like I need you
Why don't you say I do I do I do
Surrender
Forever
Say I do I do I do
Forever
Say I do I do I do
Know that I care
Say I do I do I do
Say it, baby, tonight
Say I do I do I do
Say the word, say the words
Say I do I do I do
Say I do I do I do
[Verse 1]
Never thought that love could make me fall
Never thought I needed love at all
Took me a while to finally realize
That your love was all I needed
[Pre-Chorus]
To complete my life
Will you make this sacrifice?
It's hard to believe
But your love has turned my around
I can make a commitment now
[Chorus]
Say I do I do I do
If you really love me
Say I do I do I do
If you want to be with me
Say I do I do I do
'Cause I really want to be with you so much
Say I do I do I do
[Verse 2]
Found myself searching what was in my heart
Scared me when I saw us drifting apart
Even though I didn't know any other way
I don't want to lose you

To complete my life
