Did We Not Choose Each Other

I'm a wounded soldier on a downtown train to your place

You've launched a secret heart with your face

You don't always say what I want to hear but you move me

Across the rooftops and into the deep blue sea

Did we not choose each other

Are we just heroes for a day

This time I will stand by you

And mine is the heart I will save

I drew a hard line but I just can't see it

Your colours are bleeding all over my bullshit

I wanna be your star but I gotta learn to feel myself

I want your love and I need your help

Did we not choose each other

Are we just heroes for a day

This time I will stand by you

And mine is the heart I will save

Can we not judge each other

I'd rather wipe your tears away

I can follow my heart till the end

But I just can't choose the way

Just because we live like dolphins together

So many reasons to break the wave

We can swim from streetlamp to streetlamp

We can be kissing in the rain

Can we not judge each other

I'd rather wipe your tears away

I can follow my heart till the end

But I just can't choose the way

Listen baby, listen baby don't you do me wrong

I can make my bed, you can sing your song

Ain't nobody else gonna make you shine

If it's the truth you seek then darlin' love you'll find

I don't wanna, I don't wanna take your pain away

Isn't yours to give, isn't mine to save

Here's my heart, here's my hand, here's my soul

Take it in, take it apart, take it easy, let it go

(repeat three times)
