Hello,

Could anyone explain to me what those words mean in this context

I figured it out
I was high and low and
everything in betweenI was wicked and wild, baby,
you know what I mean
Till there was you, yeah, you

Something went wrong
I made a deal with the devil
for an empty I.O.U.
Been to hell and back, but an
angel was looking through
It was you, yeah, you
It’s all because of you

Thank you!

Thanks Mr. M. Could you please tell me what I.O.U stands for ? I’ve searched it on the internet and there are quite a few acronyms, I dont know which among them should be used in this context.
