"Choosin You" by Elijah Scott finds a man trading grand promises for steady devotion, asking only for kitchen dances, late talks, and love that outlasts hard times. He admits romance isn't dandelions and fairytales, yet this love has changed his mind about falling. The repeated image of choosing her without a road map turns uncertainty into commitment: direction doesn't matter as long as she stays beside him. Loving her feels like more than he deserves, and that gratitude becomes the song's quiet, stubborn promise.
Choosin You Lyrics by Elijah Scott
Hey, what would get you out here
Dancing ’round this kitchen, baby?
You know how you drive me crazy
Nothin’ like you, me and a buzz
Something ’bout that perfect smile
Make me wanna miss work awhile
Girl, I don’t mind you keepin’ me up
How ’bout we just don’t be
Worried ’bout no money, baby?
Long as you gon’ love me, baby
I think everything’s just fine
Would you mind if we just had a few drinks
Or two and talked about what I think I’d do?
Girl, me and you could have us a time
If lovin’ you is all I get
I got more than I deserve
You make a home out of a hard time
And put my restless heart to work
Don’t need a road map, baby
I know exactly where I’m bound
Long as you’re the one beside me
I keep choosin’ you somehow
I ain’t gon’ lie, this ain’t
No dandelions and fairytales
I know about it all too well
But you changed my mind
On fallin’ in love
When I double down on double shots
And I’m halfway gone on whiskey rock
It don’t change my mind on callin’ you up
Now I could use another you and me night
On the bottom of the shelf
Sittin’ back, watch ya dance around the bar
Way better than dancing by myself
I just got off a long nine to five
Lil’ dirt on my boots
Wouldn’t mind a lil’ drink in my cup and you
If lovin’ you is all I get
I got more than I deserve
You make a home out of a hard time
And put my restless heart to work
Don’t need a road map, baby
I know exactly where I’m bound
Long as you’re the one beside me
I keep choosin’ you somehow
‘Cause I like to let you know
Things you always know
But the time I’m holdin’ on
Girl, you won’t wanna go
Ain’t no lettin’ you go
If lovin’ you is all I get
I got more than I deserve
You make a home out of a hard time
And put my restless heart to work
Don’t need a road map, baby
I know exactly where I’m bound
No, it don’t matter where this goes
I keep choosin’ you somehow
As long as you’re the one beside me
I keep choosin’ you somehow
