History In The Making
Darius Rucker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't move, baby don't move
Aw look at you, I just want to take this in
The moonlight dancin' off your skin
Our time, let's take our time
I just want to look in your eyes
And catch my breath
'Cause I got a feelin'
This could be one of those memories
We wanna hold on to, cling to
The one we can't forget
Baby, this could be our last first kiss
The thought of forever
What if this was that moment
That chance worth takin'
History in the makin'

Inside, baby, inside
Can you feel the butterflies
Floatin' all around
'Cause I can sure feel 'em now
Tonight, maybe tonight
Is the start of a beautiful ride
That'll never end
And baby I got a feelin'

This could be one of those memories
We wanna hold on to, cling to
The one we can't forget
Baby, this could be our last first kiss
The thought of forever
What if this was that moment
That chance worth takin'
History in the makin'

Right here, right now
Holdin' you in my arms
Ah-ah-ah-ah

This could be one of those memories
We wanna hold on to, we want to cling to
The one we can't forget
Baby, this could be our last first kiss
The thoughts of forever
What if this was that moment
A chance worth takin'
History in the makin'

Ah yeah
History in the makin'
Ah ah




This is a chance worth takin
Ah ah

after 24 hours of labor, I was rushed to the o.r. to do an emergency c-section... the anesthesiologist had the radio on and this song just happened to be on the radio at the time.. I was singing and laughing and crying... what a joyous song to be playing as my beautiful Greyson was brought into the world :) 10 lbs of pure love <3 Thank you, Darius for an amazing song!

🤟Matthew 22:35-40 CEB

One of them, a legal expert, tested him. “Teacher, what is the greatest commandment in the Law?” He replied, “ You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your being, and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: You must love your neighbor as you love yourself . All the Law and the Prophets depend on these two commands.”

How could anyone say he's not a good country singer? His voice is PERFECT for this genre. Absolutely beautiful.

The house this was filmed in was my late grandparents. I grew up spending a lot of my days here...Christmas, birthdays, summers. Brings back a lot of memories. Unbelievable that millions of people have seen this old farmhouse! The road this house is on is named after them.
