Especially for you,

I wanna tell you what was real

All the moments left unsaid,

All the things I couldn’t feel

I wasn’t running after noise,

I wasn’t playing any game

Even when I stepped aside,

My heart stayed the same

You were never just a thought,

Never someone passing through

There was space, there was time,

But there was always you

Especially for you,

I wanna tell you I took my time

Not because I felt unsure,

But because I wanted truth, not signs

I didn’t need to compare,

I didn’t need to choose again

There was no one else to beat,

You were never in a race

No more guessing, no more doubt

No more questions hanging out

I’m not here to test or try

I’m right here, no alibi

And now I’m standing here with you,

Nothing hidden, nothing proved

There’s no competition, no one else,

No one I was choosing through

All the love I carry now

Knows exactly what is true

Especially for you

I choose you

Especially for you,

I wanna say you didn’t arrive late

You came when I was ready

When I could finally stay

You didn’t replace a story,

You didn’t fill a space

You are not an option here,

You are the place

I don’t want half-steps or disguise

I don’t want mirrors or borrowed ties

I’m not asking you to chase

I’m already in the same place

Oh…

Oh…

And now I’m here, completely true,

No more distance to go through

I’m not playing, I’m not gone,

I’m choosing you and staying too

All the love I’ve learned to hold

Was leading me right back to you

Especially for you

Only you

You were never in competition.

You were never in doubt.

I’m here.

I choose you.
