歌詞

You passed me that worn-out jacket

Name stitched crooked on the sleeve

Laughing at my broken glasses

You said

“You can always lean on me”

First little promise on a front porch step

Heart beating funny in my old crew neck

Didn’t know love

But I knew that day

You were the reason I would wanna stay

Every shy glance

Every tangled word

Every quiet moment that I never heard

Grew into something I could not forget

I still replay the way our hands first met

Mixtape rattling in your sedan

Songs we swore would never fade

You drew stars on fogged-up windows

Mapped out every plan we’d ever make

Summer in rewind on a burned-out disc

Shouting the words

Taking every risk

You said forever like a simple line

Wrote it on my wrist so you matched mine

Now those roads feel longer

Years apart

But they still bend back to that parking lot heart

Too young to know what we couldn’t keep

But old enough to fall in way too deep

Shared one room and a crooked table

Bills piled high by the old TV

You came home late from your second shift

Whispered

“This is harder than I dreamed”

Kissing in the hallway under tired eyes

Arguing softly

Then we compromise

Love in the dishes and the unpaid rent

In every sorry that we almost sent

Some days I wondered if we’d lost our fire

You held my face

Said

“You’re my only desire”

We didn’t sparkle like we did back then

But we kept choosing us again and again

Now there’s dust on that first old jacket

Hangs by photos on our wall

Lines on your face where the laughter sits

Proof that we survived it all

Coffee at the counter as the sunrise climbs

Sharing the quiet like a favorite rhyme

You touch my shoulder

Say my foolish name

It still lights my chest just the same

We’ve been through storms

Every kind of weather

Lost and found each other over and over

Love tastes different

Softer

Complete

Sharp and tender in the afterheat

Every age

Every season

Every half-broken year

We were learning what it meant to keep each other near

From shaking hands to golden strands of gray

I’d still choose your heart

Choose your heart every day (Oh)
