Scotty McCreery’s I Love You This Big isn’t just a song—it’s a moment frozen in time. Released in 2011 as his debut single, this track carries the weight of a dream realized. If you’ve ever followed American Idol, you probably remember the excitement of Scotty winning Season 10. This song was his coronation single, and it wasn’t just about winning—it was about showing the world who he was as an artist and as a person.
What makes I Love You This Big so special? For one, it’s all about vulnerability. Scotty’s deep, resonant voice pairs perfectly with the tender lyrics, creating a connection that feels personal. The song is a love letter of sorts, a declaration that doesn’t shy away from expressing raw, honest emotion.

Whether it’s about romantic love, family bonds, or the excitement of a first crush, this track makes you feel something.
Musically, the song leans into Scotty’s country roots, with gentle guitar strums and sweeping instrumentals that create a warm, heartfelt atmosphere. It’s the kind of song you’d play at a wedding or during a quiet moment with someone you care about.
For Scotty, this song marked the beginning of an incredible journey. At just 17, he stepped into the spotlight with a song that wasn’t flashy or overproduced—it was genuine, just like him. I Love You This Big debuted at number 32 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and eventually climbed higher, proving that authenticity truly resonates with listeners.
The song also symbolizes growth. While Scotty has gone on to release more music and develop his artistry, I Love You This Big is a reminder of where it all started. It’s a snapshot of his humble beginnings, a moment when a teenager from North Carolina took a leap of faith and won the hearts of millions.
So, if you’re in the mood for a song that feels like a warm hug or a heartfelt confession, give I Love You This Big a listen. It’s more than music—it’s a reminder of the power of sincerity and the beauty of starting small but dreaming big.

Lyrics
I know I’m still young
But I know how I feel
I might not have too much experience
But I know when love is real
By the way my heart starts pounding
When I look into your eyes
I might look a little silly
Standing with my arms stretched open wide
I love you this big
Eyes have never seen this big
No one’s ever dreamed this big
And I’ll spend the rest of my life
Explaining what words can not describe
But I’ll try
I love you this big
I love you to the moon and back
I love you all the time
Deeper than the ocean
And higher than the pines
‘Cause girl, you do something to me
Deep down in my heart
I know I look a little crazy
Standing with my arms stretched all apart
I love you this big
Eyes have never seen this big
No one’s ever dreamed this big
And I’ll spend the rest of my life
Explaining what words can not describe
But I’ll try
I love you this big
So much bigger than I ever dreamed my heart ever would
I love you this big
And I’d write your name in stars across the sky if I could
I would
I love you this big
Oh, eyes have never seen this big
No one’s ever dreamed this big
And I’ll spend the rest of my life
Explaining what words can not describe
But I’ll try
I love you this big
Oh, eyes have never seen this big
No one’s ever dreamed this big
And I’ll spend the rest of my life
Explaining what words can not describe
But I’ll try
I love you this big
