Taking a few years away from the music scene to work on new material, Jennifer released her second studio album, Positively Somewhere, in September 2001. This album featured a more mature pop-rock sound, but went virtually unnoticed in the U.S. after its release due to lack of promotion on her label's part. It wasn't until its European and Asian release in the summer of 2002 that it achieved some success, thanks to the modest hit "Stranded", a cover of the Plumb song. Following the release of this album, Paige parted ways with her label, Edel. As a result, her former label released a compilation record in 2003 called Flowers - The Hits Collection, which comprised all of Paige's singles alongside a selection of other material lifted from her first two albums.
It wasn't until April 2008 that Jennifer Paige released her follow-up album, Best Kept Secret. Released in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland in 2008 through her new label GLOR Music Production GmbH, it included the singles "Wasted", "Underestimated", and the Nick Carter collaboration "Beautiful Lie".
A few years later, Paige collaborated with Coury Palermo for a couple of EPs but returned to her solo ventures for her first Christmas album, Holiday. Released in November 2012, it featured original seasonal material along with reworkings of old classics.
Following a successful kickstarter campaign, Paige released her fifth studio album in March 2017. Originally called Daydreamer, it was eventually renamed Starflower, and includes the single "The Devil's in the Details".
I Do
Jennifer Paige Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In all this commotion
With guarded emotions
We're afraid to feel
In this world gone crazy
I'm keeping you close to me
So love won't leave me here
Cuz I'm prone to overanalyze
My heart gets stuck in overdrive
While I'm left standing by
And I do love you
I like to go with the flow
Still I don't know which way I'm going
But it's all there in the skies
How I do love you
I do love you
I'm overthinking, every motion
Got my feet off the ground
And I'll be headin'
In your direction
So when it all comes down
To a world gone hazy
You'll be leading me safely
Love won't leave me here
[chorus]
Cuz I'm prone to overanalyze
My heart gets stuck in overdrive
While I'm left standing by
And I do love you
I like to go with the flow
Still I don't know which way I'm going
But it's all there in the skies
How I do love you
I do, do love you, I do love you
Don't stop you know that I'm needing you now
Don't stop til I got my feet off the ground
Can't stop this feeling, can't slow it down

Line by Line Meaning
What are we doing here
What is the purpose of our existence or actions?
In all this commotion
Despite all the chaos and confusion around us
With guarded emotions
We are hesitant to express our true feelings
We're afraid to feel
Our fear of being hurt prevents us from experiencing and expressing our emotions
In this world gone crazy
In a chaotic and unpredictable world
I'm keeping you close to me
I am holding onto you tightly or relying on your presence for stability
So love won't leave me here
To prevent feeling abandoned or alone, I am holding onto love
Cuz I'm prone to overanalyze
Because I tend to excessively think or analyze situations
My heart gets stuck in overdrive
My emotions become overwhelming and intense
While I'm left standing by
I am left waiting or unsure of how to proceed
And I do love you
I truly love and care for you
I like to go with the flow
I prefer to handle things as they come and adapt to situations
Still I don't know which way I'm going
Despite my adaptable nature, I am unsure of my direction or path
But it's all there in the skies
The answers or clarity I seek may be found in the universe or a higher power
I'm overthinking, every motion
I am analyzing every movement or action, causing me to become overwhelmed
Got my feet off the ground
I am in a state of emotional disarray or instability
And I'll be headin'
I am moving towards a goal or destination
In your direction
I am moving towards you or seeking your guidance
So when it all comes down
When everything is said and done
To a world gone hazy
In a world full of confusion and uncertainty
You'll be leading me safely
You will guide me and keep me secure
Don't stop you know that I'm needing you now
I am in a state of desperation and require your support
Don't stop til I got my feet off the ground
Continue to assist me until I am emotionally stable
Can't stop this feeling, can't slow it down
I cannot control or contain my emotions
How I do love you
I express once again how much I love you
I do, do love you, I do love you
I emphasize my love for you and reaffirm my commitment
