If I Get To Choose

I’ve had enough of perfect stories

They always leave something out

Give me somebody who can laugh with me

When everything goes sideways

I don’t need a movie ending

I don’t need a grand parade

Give me Sunday mornings with you And I’ll take it every day

Because I’ve learned what matters

After all I’ve been through

If there’s one thing I can choose—

I choose you

On the easy days I choose you

When the plans all change When we’re laughing in the kitchen

When we’re driving nowhere If I get to choose I choose you

I choose you

When the years move fast I choose you

And I hope it lasts Out of everybody

Anywhere I could be If I get to choose You’re where I

wanna be (yeah, yeah)

Maybe we’ll get older Maybe we’ll change our minds

Maybe we’ll have a thousand stories

We haven’t

written yet

But I know when I see you

Walking toward me through the crowd

There’s nowhere else I’d rather be

And I don’t need to say it loud

No perfect picture

No carefully planned scene

Just your hand inside my hand And you standing next to me

I choose you

On the easy days I choose you

When the plans all change When we’re laughing in the kitchen

When we’re driving nowhere If I get to choose I choose you

I choose you

When the years move fast I choose you

And I hope it lasts Out of everybody Anywhere I could be

If I get to choose— You’re where I wanna be (ooh-ooh-ooh)

If I get to choose…

I choose you.
