[Intro – Soft piano] If you decide… [Verse 1] I know the words that cut the deepest came from both our mouths We say things in the fire we never meant to shout You say it’s been an act, that you were just trying to survive And every line you speak is breaking something still alive I don’t want to leave, I don’t want to be the one you don’t need A day without your face or the kids is hard for me to breathe I only ever wanted a good life built side by side I’m sorry for the ways I failed to show you that inside [Pre-Chorus] I’ll give you all the space you ask for… [Chorus] If you decide, I’ll honor what you choose I won’t keep calling, I won’t keep chasing after you If you decide that this is where it ends I’ll still love you then, even as a friend I want my kids every day, I want you for the rest But I won’t force a life that only leaves you stressed If you decide… yeah if you decide I’ll still be here… on the other side [Verse 2] You say you wish you’d left a long time ago That every day was just compliance, trying not to feel the blow I hear the weight in every text, the years of holding on While I was fighting battles you felt you’d already lost I’m not a monster, though some days I act like one Just a man who’s scared of losing everything we’ve done I know we both have pain and stories that don’t match But I still believe there’s something left that we could catch [Bridge] I’ll wait for your decision, quiet as you need No more pressure, no more proofs of how much I believe Whatever you choose… I’ll still love you most [Final Chorus – Softer but full] If you decide, I’ll honor what you choose I won’t keep calling, I won’t keep chasing after you If you decide that this is where it ends I’ll still love you then, even as a friend I want my kids every day, I want you for the rest But I won’t force a life that only leaves you stressed If you decide… yeah if you decide I’ll still be here… on the other side [Outro – Quiet piano] If you decide… I’ll still love you… Even then.
