The song was inspired by media criticism of the relationship between Twain and Lange in the mid-1990s.

Twain disagreed with these criticisms and wanted to overcome them in public and this led to his re-writing. In this ode, for the union between him and Lange, Twain explains how happy they are not to listen to critics, as if they did, seeing what obstacles they might get rid of. Unfortunately, in the end Twain and Lange divorced ten years later in 2008 after 14 years of marriage due to an affair between Twain and his best friend.

Here's a free translation of the song You're Still the One.
When I first saw you, I saw love.
And the first time you touched me, I felt love.
And after all this time, you're still the one I love.
The first time I saw you, I saw love there
And the first time you touch me, I feel love there
And until now, you remain my only love.
Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We might a took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
Looks like we have succeeded
Just look how far we have achieved it, my dear
Maybe we used to take a long way
But we know for sure that we will arrive at our destination one day
They said, "I bet they'll never make it!"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
They once said, "I bet they will never achieve it!"
But look now, we are united today
We're still together, the closer our relationship is
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're the one I want for life
(You're still the only one)
You remain my only place to go
The only one who has me
You're still the only one I want in my life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night ...
Still the one
(You're still the only one)
You're still the only one I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the only one I kissed good night
Still the only one
Is not nothing better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we did not listen
Look at what we would be missing
Nothing better for me
That we have defeated everyone's expectations
How happy I am that we did not listen to people's prejudices and did not think that our relationship would end in vain
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still strong
They once said, "I bet they will never achieve it!"
But look now, we are united today
We're still together, the closer our relationship is
I'm so glad we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
I am very happy with the success we have achieved.
Just look how far we have achieved it, my dear.
