The Dance I'd Choose Again

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Back in that department store Just two kids working the floor Never knew a simple shift Would turn into a life like this Something in that easy smile Made me wanna stay a while [Chorus] Christi, you're the dance I'd choose again Every turn, every spin, from way back then Through the years, through it all You're the reason I stand tall My best friend, my everything Christi, you're the song I'll always sing [Verse 2] A beat-up Mustang barely ran But you still held my hand Badges and sirens in your blood A family built on faith and love You gave me more than I deserve Thirty years and every word [Chorus] Christi, you're the dance I'd choose again Every turn, every spin, from way back then Through the years, through it all You're the reason I stand tall My best friend, my everything Christi, you're the song I'll always sing [Bridge] Now Nick and Alex wear their wings Serving skies for bigger things Three grandbabies at the door And still my heart keeps wanting more [Verse 3] From that store to raising kids To watching all the things they did You held this family like a thread Stitching love in every step And when our song comes on the radio I pull you close and won't let go [Chorus] Christi, you're the dance I'd choose again Every turn, every spin, from way back then Through the years, through it all You're the reason I stand tall My best friend, my everything Christi, you're the song I'll always sing [Outro] Still choosing you, still grateful too Christi, this dance belongs to you
