(Verse 1)
I could scan the horizon, search every shore
Find a thousand different faces, maybe even more
I could wander through the crowds in a city made of gold
Looking for a story that has never been told
(Pre-Chorus)
But my eyes always settle on the same sweet view
Every path I take leads me back to you
(Chorus)
If I had the world in the palm of my hand
If I could choose anyone across the land
I’d look past the stars, I’d look past the blue
‘Cause if I could have anyone, I would still pick you
You, you, hou
I would still pick you
(Verse 2)
There are voices like honey and hearts like a fire
A million different ways to feed a new desire
But they don’t know the secrets that we’ve come to keep
Or the way that you talk when you’re falling asleep
(Pre-Chorus)
Yeah, my heart’s a compass and the needle is true
Every beat it takes leads me back to you
(Chorus)
If I had the world in the palm of my hand
If I could choose anyone across the land
I’d look past the stars, I’d look past the blue
‘Cause if I could have anyone, I would still pick you
You, you, hou
I would still pick you
(Bridge)
It’s not even a question, it’s not even a choice
It’s the peace that I find in the sound of your voice
Out of billions of souls, you’re the only one
The moon to my night and my morning sun
(Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break)
(Chorus)
If I had the world in the palm of my hand
If I could choose anyone across the land
I’d look past the stars, I’d look past the blue
‘Cause if I could have anyone, I would still pick you
You, you, hou
I would still pick you
(Outro)
Always you, hou
Out of everyone, I pick you
Yeah, I would still pick you.
