I Choose You Lyrics

[Intro]
Heh, you know
Someone loses someone they love every day
And I'm fortunate enough to still have you in my life (Oh, woah)
And I know I've made some mistakes in the past, but (Yeah)
I'm tired of making excuses
Listen


[Verse 1]
For whatever might have been
And all that it never was
Whatever I couldn't see
And all that I didn't want
There was a method to my madness, girl
That wasn't clear to me
Until the day I saw your face
When I saw everything

[Pre-Chorus]
For I saw us dancing through sunshine and rain
And I saw us laughing through joy and through pain
And I saw time passing but we did not change
And I still saw us together at the end of every day, girl

[Chorus]
Whenever you want it
Whenever you need it
Whatever you feel like, it's gon' be like
You better believe it
Whenever you feel like dancing
You don't have to dance alone, no
You know, you know, you know
You should already know
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I choose you (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I choose you
I choose you
[Verse 2]
I felt you inside myself
Before I could even feel
I knew you like no one else
But still I couldn't tell (Oh)
Girl, none of it made sense to me
Girl, none of it was real
Until the day I saw your face
And it was clear to see

[Chorus]
Whenever you want it (Whenever you want it)
Whenever you need it (Oh, whenever you need it, baby)
Whatever you feel like, it's gon' be like
You better believe it (You better believe it)
Whenever you feel like dancing
You don't have to dance alone, no (Oh, no)
You know, you know, you know
You should already know
I choose you (I choose you, baby)
I choose you (I choose you, girl)
I choose you (I choose you)
I choose you (You know that I choose you)
I choose you (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I choose you (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I choose you
I choose you, yeah
[Bridge]
Throughout our times, people have searched their lives
Hoping that they might find the chance where they can make things right
Through my desire, thank God I found the fire
Oh, for everything has led me straight to you, youuuu...

[Chorus]
Whenever you want it
Whenever you need it (Baby)
Whatever you feel like, it's gon' be like
You better believe it (Oh, you better believe it)
Whenever you feel like dancing
You don't have to dance alone, no
You know, you know, you know
You should already know
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I choose you (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I choose you (Yeah, oh baby, darling)
I choose you (Said I'm choosing you)

I choose you (Oh, baby baby)
I choose you (Girl, I made up my mind)
I choose you (And I choose you)
I choose you
I choose you (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I choose you (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I choose you (Girl)
I choose you
I choose you
