I Do
Sandy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sitting down to waste some time I let the day roll by me
all I wanna do today is sit with you beside me
Watching all the people rush by with hurried looks in their eye
Wont make me change what I feel inside me
And I hope you feel that way too
'cos baby I do

Living under city skies where everything is moving
Makes it that much better here where the wind is soothing
Oh so good to get a way for a while
Almost forgot how to smile it feels so good to be here
I know that I'll always wanna be with you
baby I do

Lying side by side soaking up the sunny weather
Dancing in the rain happy just to be together

Thinking about the Time we spent
In our years together
And hoping that it's gonna stay
Like it is forever





Do you remember when we used to stay in our situation was grim but as it was we managed through thick and thin
And you would whisper I love you Baby I do

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sandy Posey's song "All I Have To Do Is Dream" express the yearning for a loved one's presence and affection. The repetition of the phrase "drea-ea-ea-eam" adds a dreamy quality to the song, emphasizing the singer's desire for their loved one. The lyrics express the idea that the power of imagination can bring comfort and fulfillment when the physical presence of a loved one is lacking. The lyrics suggest that even when the singer feels blue or lonely, they can find solace in their dreams of this loved one. The line "I'm dreamin' my life away" emphasizes the powerful hold that this person has on the singer's thoughts and emotions.


Furthermore, the lyrics suggest that the singer's feelings for this person are all-encompassing and intense, to the point where they feel they could die without them. The line "I need you so that I could die" encapsulates this sentiment. This underscores the importance of the person to the singer, and the profound impact they have on their life.


Interestingly, despite the song's romantic overtones, it was originally written and recorded by the Everly Brothers as a duet, with lyrics that expressed a more platonic relationship between the two singers. It was later covered by numerous artists, including Sandy Posey, whose version became a hit and is the most well-known. The song's emotional power and timeless melody have made it a classic of the popular music canon.
