"I do", from a boy in love to a girl called Tennessee

It's always scary when you find true love
Never the moment that you thought of
It only appears in the light of it slippin away
Do you believe in love and that we were meant to be?
Two words can free us so repeat them after me
"I do", from a boy in love to a girl called
Tennessee

Put me on the air in case she's listening somewhere

Take it to heart keep it in mind
Try to reach out through the telephone line
Caller you're on the air say it so she hears
Do you believe in love and that we were meant to be?
Two words can free us so repeat them after me
"I do", from a boy in love to a girl called
Tennessee
