Chose Love Over Easy

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some love stories start with perfect timing Everything lined up just right But the best ones start when two hearts find each other Against the odds, against the night When the world said no, he said I'm staying Chose a ready-made family with his whole heart [Chorus] Here's to the man who chose love over easy Though unable to see around the next curve Here's to the one who made broken feel beautiful Paul, you're the blessing I didn't think I deserved [Verse 2] Forty years of mornings waking next to you Every gray sky turned to gold You never needed your own blood to be a father Poppaw's the sweetest name you hold Little man is nine and walks just like you Wants to grow up in your shadow every day [Chorus] Here's to the man who chose love over easy Though unable to see around the next curve Here's to the one who made broken feel beautiful Paul, you're the blessing I didn't think I deserved [Bridge] They said it wouldn't last But here we are still standing God knew what He was doing When He put you in my hands [Verse 3] Life ain't always gentle, it ain't always kind But you make it wonderful somehow Grandkids and great-grandkids all gathered round You're the roots beneath us now If I had a thousand lives to live Paul, I'd choose you every single time [Chorus] Here's to the man who chose love over easy Though unable to see around the next curve Here's to the one who made broken feel beautiful Paul, you're the blessing I didn't think I deserved [Outro] Over and over I'd choose you again My heart, my home, my forever amen
