Carrie King – I Choose You Lyrics

The day you came along
Suddenly songs had new meaning
But they still couldn't say what I knew
Because I knew it right then
Like I've known it a thousand times again
No matter who else I knew, I'd choose you
So I'll wear your name like a badge of honor
And I'll trade my heart for yours
I'll follow you, dear, over distant borders
Over mountains and valleys and shores
And even when the journey's long
I'll remember what's true
And I'll spend my life choosing you
I can't promise you peace
But I promise that when the fight is over there will be
No one behind you more than me
I can promise you love
And I promise to learn what that means
I'll teach you as you teach me
We've both got a lot to learn
And I'll wear your name like a badge of honor
And I'll trade my heart for yours
I'll follow you, dear, over distant borders
Over mountains and valleys and shores
And even when the journey's long
I'll remember what's true
And I'll spend my life choosing you
Even if it falls to pieces
When days are dark with doubt
Baby, I won't desert you, no
Together we can work it out
I'll wear your name like a badge of honor
And I'll trade my heart for yours
I'll follow you, dear, over distant borders
Over mountains and valleys and shores
And even when the journey's long
I'll remember what's true
I'll remember what is true
I'll remember what's true
Darling, I'll spend my life choosing you
