You choose me

[Verse 1]
I’ve been loved when I was easy
When I didn’t ask for much
Loved in all the pretty moments
Then abandoned when it got tough

I got used to people leaving
Soon as loving took some work
Like forever meant “until it’s hard”
And promises were only words

Then you came in different
You never asked me to come alone
You saw every piece that came with me
And somehow called it home

[Pre-Chorus]
You didn’t choose the polished parts
And tolerate the rest
You looked at everything I carried
And said, “I want all of it”

[Chorus]
You choose me
Not just the woman in your arms
You choose the life that came with me
The kids, the mess, the scars

You take care of what you call yours
Not because I ask you to
The man you say you want to be
Shows up and follows through

And when loving me gets heavy
You don’t go looking for someone new
You’d rather fight for what we built
Than start from scratch with somebody new

You choose me
Again and again
And I’ve never been loved
Like that by any man

[Verse 2]
You know every way I’m difficult
Every wall and every flaw
You’ve seen the parts I try to hide
And somehow never loved me small

You don’t need me to be perfect
You don’t confuse love with peace
You know sometimes two people hurt
And still refuse to leave

You carry things I never notice
Handle things before I ask
You don’t need praise for holding us together
You just quietly have our backs

[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t keep score of what is yours
And what belongs to me
Somewhere along the way, my people
Became your family

[Chorus]
You choose me
Not just the woman in your arms
You choose the life that came with me
The kids, the mess, the scars

You take care of what you call yours
Not because I ask you to
The man you say you want to be
Shows up and follows through

And when loving me gets heavy
You don’t go looking for someone new
You’d rather fight for what we built
Than start from scratch with somebody new

You choose me
Again and again
And I’ve never been loved
Like that by any man

[Bridge]
Anybody can fall in love
Before they know what loving costs
Anybody can want forever
Before forever asks a lot

But you have seen me angry
Seen me tired, seen me wrong
Seen the cracks between us opening
And still said, “This is where I belong”

You don’t throw away a lifetime
For the thrill of starting clean
Somebody new might come much easier
But they could never be what we’ve been

Because this love didn’t happen overnight
It grew into my bones
You’re not just somebody I’m loving
You’re a piece of what feels like home

[Breakdown]
So when the world says, “Start over”
You pull me closer instead
When walking out would be easier
You stay and say what’s left unsaid

You don’t love me because I’m flawless
You love me knowing I’m not
And maybe that’s what forever is
Choosing what you’ve already got

[Final Chorus]
You choose me
And everything that choosing means
My history, my family
My worst days and my dreams

You stand beside what you believe in
You protect the life we made
And every time love asks the question
If you’re staying, you stay

You could find somebody easier
Someone untouched, someone new
But you’d rather fight beside the woman
Who built this kind of love with you

You choose me
Again and again
And I finally know the difference
Between being wanted
And being loved by a man

[Outro]
You didn’t just fall for me
You stayed long enough to know me

And still

You choose me
