I still choose you

Here’s your story turned into a raw, emotional song—kept real, like you told it:

⸻

“I Still Choose You”

(Verse 1)

Met you in the silence, after everything broke down

A heart full of chaos, just tryna not drown

You were different from the rest, yeah you actually heard me

Spoke soft, spoke kind… like I finally had peace

I was hooked on the feeling, what we could become

But my past kept screaming, told me I should run

So I disappeared, yeah I ghosted your light

Thought no man would want all the mess in my life

(Pre-Chorus)

But one day I came back, shaking, unsure

Took a chance on a “maybe”… you opened the door

(Chorus)

And we fell like lightning, fast and wild

April eyes locked, I was just a child

In love with a man I barely knew

But somehow it felt like I always knew you

Through the miles, through the pain, through the fights we’d lose

I was breaking myself just to hold onto you

Even when you didn’t choose me like I chose you

I still… I still choose you

⸻

(Verse 2)

Long distance nights, they were cold as hell

We built something fragile that we couldn’t hold well

Too many breakups, too many tears

Fighting invisible wars for years

Dodging your lies, your secrets, your ways

Begging for truth in a love full of haze

I felt like I’m drowning, you turned away

Like loving me was just too much to stay

(Pre-Chorus)

Then came the moment I feared the most

Alone with your child… and you turned to a ghost

(Chorus)

And I cried in the dark, “How could you not feel?”

All the pain that I carried, how could this be real?

I gave you my body, my soul, my truth

But it never meant nothing to you

Years went by, and my love grew tired

Turned cold, turned guarded, a dimmed-out fire

I loved a man who couldn’t love me through

But still… I still chose you

⸻

(Bridge)

Seven years later, now you’re all in

Giving me the love I begged for back then

But something inside me don’t feel the same

That 2018 love don’t burn that flame

I love you… yeah, I do, it’s true

But not like the girl who once needed you

She’s gone now, changed by the pain

Still here… but she don’t love the same

⸻

(Final Chorus)

But I stayed through the chaos, the hurt, the scars

Through broken nights and falling apart

I married you, gave you a life

Still standing here as your wife

Through the passion, the fights, the tears we knew

Through every version of loving you

Even when I was your second best view

I still… I still choose you

⸻

(Outro)

So I’ll be here… through the love and the ache

Through every promise we tried to remake

Fighting for something that took you too long

To finally feel… when I was already gone

I’ll always love you… yeah that much is true

Just not the same way… I once loved you

But I still choose you.

If you want, I can turn this into a specific style (country, R&B, sad piano, etc.) or even structure it for recording 🎶
