Verse 1:
Before mommy, before daddy
Before it was your turn, before I'm too tired
There was us
there was
text me when you get home
There was
I can't wait to start our life together
Chorus:
You're my favorite part
In the mess and the beauty
you're my heart's home
Through the laughter and the tears, you're the one I want more
You're my favorite part, my hearts home
Verse 2:
Late nights that felt endless, dreams whispered in parked cars
About a future we couldn't picture clearly but wanted anyway
We laughed about names, talked about houses, promised we'd never lose this
We had no idea how much it would stretch us
Chorus:
You're my favorite part
In the mess and the beauty
you're my heart's home
Through the laughter and the tears, you're the one I want more
You're my favorite part, my hearts home
Verse 3:
We're past the bottles on the counter, past the diapers and first words
Now onto dancers and runners, football players and baseballers
Bread bakers and pretzel makers
Laundry that never ends, exhaustion sitting heavy between us on the couch
Romance looks different, quieter, harder earned
Chorus:
You're my favorite part
In the mess and the beauty
you're my heart's home
Through the laughter and the tears, you're the one I want more
You're my favorite part, my hearts home
Bridge:
Sometimes when the house finally goes still
I catch your eye across the room and see that girl
The same girl who whispered about eternity
Like it was a promise we had no idea would cost us this much
Chorus:
You're my favorite part
In the mess and the beauty
you're my heart's home
Through the laughter and the tears, you're the one I want more
You're my favorite part, my hearts home
Outro:
My favorite part
Building something that'll outlive us
And even now, in the middle of all of this
You are still my favorite part
