Every Love Is Its Own Country

[Verse 1]
You keep the train ticket folded in your book,
From that small town where the rain came sideways.
I know the crease, the date, the penciled look—
The way you save a day in ordinary ways.

[Pre-Chorus]
No two hearts arrive by the same road,
No two hands make shelter quite alike.
You turn the key; the whole house changes shape,
And every window learns a different kind of light.

[Chorus]
Every love is its own wide country,
Every vow has a voice of its own.
Yours is the door I can open slowly,
Yours is the place that has become home.
Let the whole world rise around us,
Let the years redraw what we know—
Every love is a once-in-a-lifetime country,
And I choose yours wherever we go.

[Verse 2]
You leave the hallway lamp on when I’m late,
I bring your coat in from the garden chair.
We’ve made a language out of small mistakes,
And learned which silences mean, “I’m still here.”

[Pre-Chorus]
No two hearts arrive by the same road,
No two hands make shelter quite alike.
You turn the key; the whole house changes shape,
And every window learns a different kind of light.

[Chorus]
Every love is its own wide country,
Every vow has a voice of its own.
Yours is the door I can open slowly,
Yours is the place that has become home.
Let the whole world rise around us,
Let the years redraw what we know—
Every love is a once-in-a-lifetime country,
And I choose yours wherever we go.

[Bridge]
If the map tears, we’ll draw another.
If the road bends, we’ll take it together.
Your name in my mouth, my name in your hands—
Two changing lives, still making a land.
No borrowed promise, no perfect design,
Just your brave heart reaching for mine.

[Final Chorus]
Every love is its own wide country,
Every vow has a voice of its own.
Yours is the door I can open slowly,
Yours is the place that has become home.
Let the whole world rise around us,
Let the years redraw what we know—
Every love is a once-in-a-lifetime country,
And I choose yours wherever we go.

[Outro]
I choose yours wherever we go.
