I Choose You Lyrics
Ryan Leslie
Lyrics
You introduce me to life that I've never known
When I'm by your side that's when I'm feelin' home
And my only attempt is to make you smile
I promise
So believe what I say when I say I'm real
'Cause there ain't no mistakin' the way I feel
Baby, open your heart and accept this love
I give you
Over the others, over my pride
Over the faults I have in my life
I choose you, I choose you
I choose you, I choose you
Over the others, over my pride
'Cause you're the best thing in my life
I choose you, I choose you
I choose you, yeah
Said I knew it was right, so I took the chance
Disregarded the challenge of the circumstance
Now you're too big a part of me to let you go
I promise, yeah
So despite the way that I make mistakes
And despite the direction this love may take
You can always be sure of me, just have faith
I got you, this much is true
Over the others, over my pride
Over the faults I have in my life
I choose you, I choose you
I choose you, I choose you
Over the others, over my pride
'Cause you're the best thing in my life
I choose you, I choose you
I choose you
