“I Do Take” is an ethereal, Prince-influenced R&B ballad paced at a tempo just right for a wedding processional. Since striking gold twice-previously with “Make Me Whole” (1999) and “No One Else”(2006), it only made sense for Larrieux to deliver a third candidate for perennial matrimony anthem.
...
Sometimes you just know
Like nothin you’ve ever known
Like words cannot describe
Like space cannot divide
Like skies cannot confine
Like living and like dying
Like having no need to tell the time
‘Cause with you, one day’s worth 99
[Chorus:]
I do take you as the one
Miracle sent to grace these eyes
I do take you til my earthly end
And even then
You’ll be the love of my life
Sometimes you just feel
Like nothing you’ve ever felt
Like your heart just began to grow
Like it’s gon’ overflow
Like there’s enough
Love in the world
To heal every wound inside
Like there really is a god
Because your smile’s divine design
And with you one day’s worth 99
[Chorus]
Don’t ask me to explain
This beauty has no name
Too complex to simplify
Too boundless to be tied
But even a grown man will cry
At the sound of two souls
When they unify
