[Intro – airy pads, quiet room tone] Hey… I hope you’re listening. [Verse 1 – gentle, reflective] I heard you’ve been blaming yourself again, Saying you weren’t enough back then. But you never saw you through my eyes, You never knew what you were to me at night. I did things we never got to do, Saw new places, met someone new. But none of that erased the truth— I learned how to love because of you. [Pre-Chorus – soft lift] You think I left ‘cause you were wrong, But you were right more than you know. Some people come to save your heart, Not to stay, but to start it whole. [Chorus – warm, honest] I hope you know you were enough, Even when it felt like you weren’t. You loved me the only way you could, And I carried that when I learned. If I smile a little easier now, It’s ‘cause you showed me how. I don’t love you less ‘cause I moved on— I love you right for what you were. [Post-Chorus – soft hums] Mm… Yeah… [Verse 2 – brighter, affectionate] You were patience when I was scared, You stayed gentle when life was unfair. You held me up when I felt small, Even when you were breaking too. I see you still loving from afar, Still wishing good things for my heart. That’s the part I’ll never lose— The way you loved me through. [Pre-Chorus – reassuring] I don’t need you hurting alone, Thinking you failed me somehow. If I’m standing taller now, It’s because you taught me how. [Chorus – fuller, glowing] I hope you know you were enough, More than you ever believed. You gave me roots before I grew, You gave me air to breathe. If I’m living a better life, It’s not leaving you behind. It’s carrying your love forward— And holding it kind. [Bridge – stripped, emotional clarity] We weren’t meant to end together, But we were meant to meet. Some loves don’t stay forever, They just teach your heart to beat. [Final Chorus – peaceful, loving resolution] So I hope you finally see yourself The way I always did. Not as someone I survived, But the reason that I lived. If I’m happy, if I’m safe, If my world feels warm and true— Please know, deep down, always… I chose you too. [Outro – fading pads, soft breath] Take care of yourself… You mattered.

I choose you (One time edition)
