Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We had a fight, yeah I slammed that door
Hated myself before it hit the frame
You said I put ‘em all before you
Girl, that cuts me every time you say it
I ain’t saying they’re all perfect
Yeah, they’ve got their ways, I know
But you don’t see what I see in ‘em
And it’s hard hearing you talk that low

[Pre-Chorus]
If I said that ‘bout your mama
Or your daddy or your kin
You’d be standing where I’m standing
And we’d be right back here again

[Chorus]
I still choose you, I still choose you
Yeah it don’t matter what we do
Through the fight, through the fall
Through the worst of me and you
When it’s all said and done
And the hurting cuts in two
Ain’t no maybe, ain’t no question
I still choose you

[Verse 2]
We made up sitting at that kitchen table
Two cups of coffee going cold
You were tracing all the wood grain lines
Like they had something left to hold
Said you’re here but you feel halfway
And I didn’t know what to say
So I reached across that worn-out oak
But you just pulled your hand away
I try hard not to lose my temper
‘Cause I know it leaves a mark
But it ain’t easy holding steady
When yours lights up the dark

[Pre-Chorus]
Still I love you how you come
All your fire, all your flaws
I ain’t looking for perfect
Just a reason worth the cost

[Chorus]
I still choose you, I still choose you
Yeah it don’t matter what we do
Through the fight, through the fall
Through the worst of me and you
When it’s all said and done
And the hurting cuts in two
Ain’t no maybe, ain’t no question
I still choose you

[Bridge]
That kitchen table’s seen it all
Every tear and every truth
There ain’t a world where I don’t stay
No matter what we’re going through

[Final Chorus (Outro)]
I still choose you, I still choose you
Yeah it don’t matter what we do
Through the fight, through the fall
Through the worst of me and you
When it’s all said and done
And the hurting cuts in two
Ain’t no maybe, ain’t no question
I still choose you
