My First Choice

Verse 1 - Her

I spent years counting stars

Wishing on every one

Never knew the shape of grace

Till I found you in the sun

Verse 1 - Him

I was walking through the lowlands

With nothing but my name

Then your voice came soft as Sunday

And nothing was the same

Pre-Chorus - Both

Every prayer I whispered

Every tear I cried

Led me to this moment

Where our hearts collide

Chorus - Both

You're my answered prayers

My best friend, my everything

Three simple things I need

To see you, to hold you, to kiss you in the spring

You're my first choice

My priority, my home

With you I'm never lonely

I never have to roam

Verse 2 - Him

Tender as the morning rain

On English fields of green

Your heart is like a melody

The sweetest I have seen

Verse 2 - Her

And the Spanish moonlight

Dances in your eyes

You showed me what devotion means

A love that never lies

Pre-Chorus - Both

Every prayer I whispered

Every tear I dried

Led me to this moment

Standing side by side

Chorus - Both

You're my answered prayers

My best friend, my everything

Three simple things I need

To see you, to hold you, to kiss you in the spring

You're my first choice

My priority, my home

With you I'm never lonely

I never have to roam

Bridge - Her

I don't know how to tell you

How important you have grown

Bridge - Him

You're not just an option

You're the prayer I've always known

Bridge - Both

Oh, the love I feel for you

More than words could ever prove

More than rhythm, more than rhyme

You're my always, every time

Chorus - Both

You're my answered prayers

My best friend, my everything

Three simple things I need

To see you, to hold you, to kiss you in the spring

You're my first choice

My priority, my home

With you I'm never lonely

I never have to roam

Outro - Both softly

Never just an option

Always my first choice

You're my answered prayers

My heart's only voice
