I'd Pick You

So we've been a while a-coming We've spent a bit a-loving Our romancing and gazing didn't turn into nothing Gotta little more hair on my chest these days They say love is worth the waiting And we're still in the making I've told you it's worth it but you knew when I was faking Now if you're wondering, let me let you know I'd pick you, all over again A million times, start over and then I'd pick you, all over again Life isn't always pretty, when you're in the nitty gritty Time is waging war against us And we're just not in our twenties, thank God You can still cry at these little songs Well I've thought ... The thing you get me thinking There's never been an empire without battles worth beating What do you say, when we're out of ammo? We'll get away. it's just us against the world another day I'd pick you, all over again A million times, start over and then I'd pick you, all over again Nursing homes and wrinkles Lazy boys and kettles Spoiling our childrens' sweet children That meddle with things Isn't it strange We're not so young anymore But if Jesus takes you quicker It's cause my heart is thicker Still you were choosing caskets They make me want to shiver Don't fret. I won't be far behind I bet Before you finish counting all your diamonds I'll be right behind you to remind you life is crazy Before that I'll bend down and whisper "darlin, you were amazing" And I know you cannot hear me now But I promise you this one thing I'd pick you, all over again A million times, start over and then I'd pick you, all over again Oh, I'd pick you, all over again A million times, start over and then I'd pick you, all over again I'd pick you, all over again I'd pick you, all over again
