I Choose Love
[Verse 1]
Every day we're given
Another chance to be
Someone good for someone
To give your heart for free
A chance to either fall below
Or better rise above
[Chorus]
I choose love
I choose love
[Verse 2]
We've been known to bicker
We've been prone to scream
Goin' at each other till we
Fizzle out of steam
Aren't you tired of dishin'out
The pushes and the shoves?
[Chorus]
I choose love
I choose love
[Verse 3]
We hide from pain, we criticize
We veil the truth, we patronize
To help ourselves traverse
The bumpy ride
Beholden to our wary minds
We go great lengths to be unkind
We'd rather circumvent than walk the line
I haven't done much giving
Thought mostly of me
Didn't want to notice
What isn't hard to see
What's easiest to actualize
And rarely spoken of
[Chorus]
To choose love
To choose love
A chance to either fall below
Or better rise above
I choose love
I choose love
I choose love
I choose love
