I Married You

We had every reason to walk away
But we stayed, cause real love fights

You were crying in the hallway light
I was drowning in my own dark night
Bills were late and dreams were thin
But we held on tighter, you didn't cave in

Our love ain't easy, that's the truth
We made a home out of broken roots
But you never ran, you stood by me
That's the kind of love most never see, yeah, yeah

I married you, not just for days when the Sun would shine
But the nights when the world ain't kind
I married you, through every fight, through every tear
We turned our fears into years
I married you, this heart, this love
This dream's still true, after all we've been through

And I'd do it all again with you, yeah, I would, every time
Remember the hospital halls at 2am
We prayed, we broke, we loved again
No lines, just your hand in mine, even silence felt divine

You held me up, when I lost my spot
I'd call your tears in the cold and dark
We screamed, we laughed, we made it count
Built forever from a shaky ground

We made it, we made it count, still here baby, still here baby

No one knows what we survived, the nights we barely felt alive
But we didn't fall, we found a way, every storm just made us stay

Stay, stay, yeah, we stay, stay through it all

I married you, not just for laughter when it sucks
But for years when life felt long
I married you, through court dates, heartbreaks, family wars
Till we chose to open doors
To not a fairytale, but something real
The kind of love you see and feel

And baby I still do, oh I still do
Every single day, every night we still stay

We ain't perfect, but we're permanent
That's more than most ever get
And if the world ends tomorrow
I'd still say yes, I'd still say yes
