I Chose You for Her

He will be your love
 You'll show him what you're made of
 He will take your hand
 You'll let it fall like sand
 When you rage, he rises up to meet you
 You soften in his arms
 He gives you a place
 To grow into awkwardness and grace
 I chose him for you
 When you stirred in ancient memory
 I chose him for you
 To give the love that eluded me
 He'll love you as you grow (love you as you grow)
 When you find real love, you'll know
 It's ok to let go
 It's ok to let go
 It's ok to let go
 I chose him
 I chose him for you
 You caught her the day she was born
 You'll catch her whole life through
 She'll know your warmth and your limits
 Your humanity, your strength
 When the day leaves her cold and alone
 She'll know where to come back home
 She is our first child
 The greatest gift I gave is you
 I chose you for her
 When she stirred in ancient memory
 I chose you for her
 To give the love that eluded me
 You'll love her as she grows (love her as she grows)
 When she finds real love, she'll know
 It's ok to let go
 It's ok to let go
 It's ok to let go
 I chose you
 I chose you
 I chose you
 I chose you
 I chose you for her
