When the Dust All Clears

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Twenty-six years since that first hello, Two young souls we didn't yet know. Time kept turning, the world spun wide, Different roads pulled us side to side. But something quiet stayed the same, A steady fire, a whispered name. [Chorus] I'd choose you in every life, Every day and in every way. No matter the miles, no matter the years, It's only you when the dust all clears. Through it all, my heart still knows— I'd choose you, wherever this goes. [Verse 2] Other faces came and went, Other paths, but my heart was spent On one woman, one steady light, The one I reach for every night. There's only her, there's only this, A lifetime found in every kiss. [Chorus] I'd choose you in every life, Every day and in every way. No matter the miles, no matter the years, It's only you when the dust all clears. Through it all, my heart still knows— I'd choose you, wherever this goes. [Bridge] Susana, oh, my constant tide, The love that never left my side. If time began all over again, I'd walk right back to where you've been. [Verse 3] So here's my hand and here's my song, The place where I have always belonged. Susana, girl, you are my home, The only heart I'll ever roam. Not for a reason, not for a day— Just because you take my breath away. [Chorus] I'd choose you in every life, Every day and in every way. No matter the miles, no matter the years, It's only you when the dust all clears. Through it all, my heart still knows— I'd choose you, wherever this goes. [Outro] For me there's only her, it's true, Every life, Susana, I'd choose you.
