She Chose Him

Verse 1

I saw it in your eyes before you said a word,

The silence in the room was louder than I’d heard.

I dreamed of us together but it slipped right through my hands,

Now I’m standing in the wreckage trying hard to understand.

Pre-Chorus

You said you don’t want to rush

You said you needed time,

But while I was still hoping,

You were leaving me behind.

Chorus

She chose him, she chose him,

Left my heart out in the rain.

Took the road that led away

And left me with the pain.

I was ready to give everything,

But I guess love don’t always win.

Yeah, I lost what I believed in

The day she chose him.

Verse 2

Now when I see your picture on my phone feels like a stranger’s face,

Memories turn bitter when they can’t be replaced.

I replay every moment, every promise that you made,

Wonder if you meant them or just needed me to stay.

Pre-Chorus

You said it wasn’t easy,

You said you felt torn too,

But broken hearts don’t heal the same

When the leaving wasn’t you.

Chorus

She chose him, she chose him,

Left my heart out in the rain.

Took the road that led away

And left me with the pain.

I was ready to give everything,

But I guess love don’t always win.

Yeah, I lost what I believed in

The day she chose him.

Bridge

Maybe one day I’ll thank you

For the lesson that you gave,

That some people hold your heart

Just to walk away.

Final Chorus

She chose him, she chose him,

And it nearly broke my soul.

But I’ll rise up from the ashes,

I’ll be stronger from the fall.

You can keep the life you wanted,

I’ll find mine beyond the end.

Yeah, you chose your forever,

The day you chose him.
