Every Day I Choose You

[Verse 1]
You leave your coffee by my keys
A little proof you stayed with me
The kitchen window catches rain
You draw a heart, then misspell my name

I used to count what could go wrong
Now every small thing pulls me on
Your sleeve is caught beneath my watch
I laugh because I like it locked

[Pre-Chorus]
You turn the ordinary gold
A hand to hold, a story told
No grand parade, no perfect view
Just every day I choose you

[Chorus]
I want your name in every room
Your laugh cutting through the afternoon
If the whole world changes overnight
I’ll find you by the porch light

I want the years, the messy parts
The grocery lists and second starts
You make the little moments move
And I keep falling into you

[Verse 2]
We miss the train, we split the fare
You fix your hair in window glare
The plans we made are running late
But you lean close and call it fate

Your sweater smells like cedarwood
You say you’re fine; I know you’re good
One raised eyebrow, that crooked grin
And suddenly the day begins

[Pre-Chorus]
You turn the ordinary gold
A hand to hold, a story told
No grand parade, no perfect view
Just every day I choose you

[Chorus]
I want your name in every room
Your laugh cutting through the afternoon
If the whole world changes overnight
I’ll find you by the porch light

I want the years, the messy parts
The grocery lists and second starts
You make the little moments move
And I keep falling into you

[Bridge]
When the rent is due and sleep won’t come
When we’re both too proud to say we’re wrong
Put your forehead next to mine
We’ll make a little peace tonight

No promise needs a flawless scene
No silver screen, no in-between
Your hand finds mine beneath the table
That’s the kind of forever I’m able

[Final Chorus]
I want your name in every room
Your laugh cutting through the afternoon
If the whole world changes overnight
I’ll find you by the porch light

I want the years, the messy parts
The grocery lists and second starts
You make the little moments move
And I keep falling into you

[Outro]
Every day I choose you
Every day I choose you
