Stubborn

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I love the way your eyes light up when you smile, How you make a hard day feel worthwhile. I love your dancing, your laughter, your soul, The little things that make my broken days whole. And if you could see what I see, when I look at you, You’d see a love, that time could never undo. You’re more than the woman I promised to love, You’re the answer to prayers I whispered above. [Chorus] And if I get a thousand lifetimes, A thousand hearts, a thousand tries, I’d search through every star above Until I find you, my love. Through every tear and every scar, I’d love you just the way you are. And when this world has taken all I can do, My heart will still belong to you. [Verse 2] I know there are wounds that I cannot see, And days when your heart feels too tired for me. I wish I could take every hurt from your past, And give you a love that makes the good things last. I’m not asking you to forget what you’ve been through, I just want to be someone that’s safe for you. And even when I’m scared that we’re drifting apart, I’ll keep choosing you with this stubborn heart. [[Chorus] And if I get a thousand lifetimes, A thousand hearts, a thousand tries, I’d search through every star above Until I find you, my love. Through every tear and every scar, I’d love you just the way you are. And when this world has taken all I can do, My heart will still belong to you. [Bridge — soft, almost breaking] If someday you wonder if you’re worth the fight, Remember the man who still prays for you at night. I know I’m not perfect, I’ve got growing to do, But every part of me is reaching for you. And im not afraid to say, I’ll still thank God for you every day. For the girl with the smile, the woman I adore, The wife I’d choose a million times more. [Final Chorus — powerful and emotional] Give me a lifetime, I’ll give you my all, I’ll be there to catch you whenever you fall. When we’re old and the stars disappear, I’ll still pull you close and whisper in your ear: Of all the roads that this life led me through, The greatest thing I ever found was you. And if heaven asks what my heart held true, I’ll say, “Every lifetime, I’d choose you.” [Outro — whispered] Happy anniversary, my love. You never had to be perfect. You never had to hide your pain. I just wanted the chance To love you through it all. And if I had to live this life again… I’d find you, Skye. I’d choose you. Every time.
