[Verse 1] I chose you yesterday, back when we had nothing Still figuring it out, still glad I'm doing it This ain't the life I planned, it's better than I pictured You're my best friend first the rest just followed after [Verse 2] Some nights come easy, some nights come slow But I choose you tomorrow same as I chose you last night No puzzle's ever finished till the last piece falls in place And I found mine by accident, in an ordinary day [Chorus] We are imperfect humans, yet perfect for each other Not looking for a fairytale, just looking for you Forever and ever, that much I'm sure of You're my once in a lifetime I will always choose you [Verse 3] No grand gesture, no fireworks in the sky Just waking up and choosing you, over and over I try You're the love of my life, that's all I know for sure Not half of something missing just a man who's sure [Chorus — same melody, vocal cracking slightly, more weight not more volume] We are imperfect humans, yet perfect for each other Not looking for a fairytale, just looking for you Forever and ever, that much I'm sure of You're my once in a lifetime I will always choose you [Bridge — stripped to just cello, near-whispered] No one's coming to save us, no one has to try Just you and me deciding, one more time Not luck, not fate just you, holding on to me You're the only magic I still believe in [Outro — return to acoustic strum, fading, same restraint as verse 1] I chose you yesterday I'll choose you again
