I knew love could break me down
Leave me crying on the ground
I knew hearts don't always stay
But I chose you anyway

I chose you, not by fate
Not by dreams I hoped you'd make
I chose you through every doubt
Even knowing how it'd play out
Some loves come, some loves fade
But man, I chose you anyway

You weren't perfect, neither was I
But you made me feel alive
Every scar and every flame
Still I'd choose you just the same

I chose you, not to win
Not to change who you had been
I chose love, not a game
Even if I lose my name
Some things hurt, some things stay
But love, I chose you anyway

And if I'm left with nothing more
Than the memory of your face
Let the world forget our song
But I'll never call it a mistake

I chose you, with all the weight
With open hands, with no escape
I chose truth, not easy days
I chose fire, not just a flame
Even now, through all the grey
I still choose you

Every day
