Choose Wisely

You had that ring in your hand

And a line in your smile

Said "this could be forever"

But forever takes a while

Mama taught me watch the signs

When the deal looks too clean

I seen a lotta goodbyes

Hidden in between

So I looked twice

At the way you moved

One foot in, one foot out

Tell me what you do

'Cause I don't fall

For pretty lies

Not this time

Choose wisely, Baby, don't play me blind

If you want this heart of mine

One wrong turn

Can burn it down

Choose wisely, Right here, right now (choose wisely)

Your truck door slammed at dawn

With the coffee still hot

Two bags on the porch steps

And a look I forgot

You said love ain't a gamble

Then you rolled the dice

Now I'm standing in the gravel

Trying to save my life

So I looked twice

At the way you moved

One foot in, one foot out

Tell me what you do

'Cause I don't fall

For pretty lies

Not this time

Choose wisely, Baby, don't play me blind

If you want this heart of mine

One wrong turn

Can burn it down

Choose wisely, Right here, right now (choose wisely)

I ain't mad, I'm just done

With the half-truth game

If you want the whole road

You better say my name

'Cause I can stay

Or I can go

I need the real thing

I need to know

Choose wisely, Baby, don't play me blind

If you want this heart of mine

One wrong turn

Can burn it down

Choose wisely, Right here, right now (choose wisely)
