The Moments Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ooh, ooh, say you'll be mine
Come rain or shine
And when I kiss you
Just say I do now
Oh, just I do-do-do
Love you, oh, baby
You're as sweet as old cherry wine
Ooh, ooh, like an angel
Oh, baby, you're so fine
Say you'll be with me
My whole life through now
Oh, just say I do-do-do
Love you, oh, bab&121
There are many ways of saying I love you (I love you)
But any word from you is good enough for me
Too many hearts now has been bleeding
And if mine is one, if mine is one
It wants to be, it wants to be, oh, baby, oh, baby
Each night of my dream
Ooh, ooh, I'm a king
My darling, you're my queen
And when I awake
Please make my dream come true
Oh, just say now
I do-do-do
Love you
I do-do-do
Love you
I do-do-do
Love you
I do-do-do
Love you
The Moments’ love ballad “I Do” is a song about a man professing his love to a woman and asking her to marry him. The first few lines of the song are about the man asking for peace of mind and for the woman to accept his proposal. He then proceeds to tell her that she is as sweet as old cherry wine and that she is fine like an angel. The man is so in love with the woman that he wants her to be with him for his whole life.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase “just say I do-do-do, love you, oh, baby,” which is the central theme of the song. The man wants the woman to say “I do” to his proposal and to love him as he loves her. The song emphasizes the depth of the man’s feelings for the woman and his conviction that she is the one for him.
The song has a simple melody and the lyrics are straightforward, but the sentiment behind the words is powerful. The Moments were able to capture the essence of true love and convey it through their music. The song is a classic example of soul music from the 1970s and remains a popular love ballad today.

on I Don't Want To Go
Lately I been Known
For making up excuses
And all too many times
Wondering what the use is now
Nothing like it used to be
When you and me
Were all I ever dreamed of
Dreams just don't come true
Just the way you planned them
And looking back in time
I still don't understand just how
The feeling comes and goes
And before I start to lie
I want you to know
[Chorus]
I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
Cause it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me
And ohh how I wish I
Loved you like I did
Honey you know I did
Did we turn away
Just when we saw it coming
And could we have been saved
Or would we still
Be running scared
The space became so wide
That no matter how I tried
There was just no place to hide
Ohh Baby
[Chorus]
I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
Cause it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me
And ohh how I wish I
Loved you like I did
Honey you know I did
Repeat 2x
[Chorus]
I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me
And ohh how I wish I
Loved you like I did
Honey you know I did
I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before
I Just
(But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me)
I Just
(I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before)
I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like
Just like before
