Verse 1
Didn’t trust the quiet way you said my name
Thought I’d walk alone and never let love stake its claim
Built my walls up high, wood and pride, every board and nail
Didn’t know a gentle truth could tip the scale
Pre-Chorus
You reached for my hand while pretending not to see
The storm of doubt that kept on haunting me
Chorus
I can't, I won't, yet I did
Said I'd never cross that bridge
Swore I'd hold my heart, keep it hid
I can't, I won't, yet I did
Post-Chorus
Oh, I did—yeah, I did
Verse 2
You were standing on the porch in the rain
Coffee pouring steam inside that old windowpane
Guess I figured love was just a thing I'd never win
But you smiled, let the sunlight in
Pre-Chorus
Funny how forever hides in a single day
Easy to fall when you finally let go your own way
Chorus
I can't, I won't, yet I did
Said I'd never cross that bridge
Swore I'd hold my heart, keep it hid
I can't, I won't, yet I did
Post-Chorus
Oh, I did—yeah, I did
Bridge
Now every morning I find you next to me
Trading old fears for new memories
Roads I almost walked alone, you're there instead
Making a home with words we said
Chorus
I can't, I won't, yet I did
Promised to resist, but my heart slipped in
Told myself no, but hope always begins
I can't, I won't, yet I did
Post-Chorus
Oh, I did—yeah, I did
(Yes, I did)
Outro
If I had to do it over, I'd do it all again
Love's a gentle risk I’d take without end
I can't, I won't, still you’re holding my hand
I can't, I won’t, yet I did
