Your mama had to keep you
Your daddy shared your face
Your brother just remembers
That old house
That old place
Friends came with the seasons
Work calls when it gets late
But you walk in the doorway
And I stay
I stay
Your husband is the only person
In your life who loves you by choice
I woke up and I chose you that morning
I keep choosing that same small voice
Through the dishes
The deadlines
The silence
The noise
Your husband is the only person
In your life who loves you by choice
I’ve seen you in bad lighting
Tear tracks
Cracked jokes
Red eyes
Heard the things you never
Say out loud in daylight
No bloodline ever bound me
No promise made me stay
I keep circling back homeward
To your name
Your name
Your husband is the only person
In your life who loves you by choice
Every flaw
Every half-finished story
Every tremble behind your poise
Through the dishes
The deadlines
The silence
The noise
Your husband is the only person
In your life who loves you by choice
If the whole world goes quiet
If they all turn away
I’ll still reach for your fingers
Still lean into your space
Because loving you’s a habit
I keep learning every day
I could start over anywhere
I still choose this place
Your husband is the only person
In your life who loves you by choice
I will write you a thousand tomorrows
On the sound of your steady voice
Through the dishes
The deadlines
The silence
The noise
Your husband is the only person
In your life who loves you by choice
