Name: I Do
Duration: P00H03M16S
Description: It was hard to include this. The digital piano in the first verse is just awful. I am going to replace it with real piano. It will sound so much better. Particularly pleased with this lyric. Lyrics are so damn hard! I wanted to capture that post-wedding vibe, as the reception is winding down. It's a gorgeous blend of optimism and melancholy.

lyrics

Lost are the people in a living dream, Virtue blushing in a limousine that morning
Kisses and flowers for the bride-to-be, and Daddy is there to give her heart away
Waiting in the church is the chosen one, a man silhouetted on a saint behind the altar
Promises are made, the vows are done, a nod from the vicar is a blessing from above

I do, I do, I do, I do

Spent confetti on a polished floor, a solitary pair slow-dancing to a samba
Semi-drunk glasses in a shaft of sun, the paper remains of speeches cast aside
Sleeping in a corner sits Uncle John, a child pirouetting in a white dress by the window
Static on the stage, the band play on, the sweet melancholy of an echo on the ride

I do, I do, I do, I do
I do, I do, I do, I do
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do love you
