Everytime and Always

ABOUT THIS SONG

They met through a friend, a hospital front desk and an IT badge. The promise he made after has not moved since.

LYRICS

You worked the front desk office on the ER side, first face they saw when the door swung
Wide
I was IT printers and passwords all day, just fixing what the world broke for pay
Then your name came up through a friend we both knew, said would you mind if she called

On you
I said sure she can, playing it cool, but my heart already knew the truth
I wasn't looking for love that night, but something about you made the world right
From that first walk to the life we grew, every road after that led back to you

You made my heart stop, then beat brand new
One lunch break, smiled, and I fell for you
Next day I pulled up right after work, trying to hide the sweat on my shirt
We walked through the park, saw a daylight moon, nothing was perfect but somehow I knew

You saw past the work shirt, past the pride, saw the tired man I kept inside
You were still my calm when the whole world spins, my best friend now like you were then
I wasn't looking for love that night, but something about you made the world right
From that first walk to the life we grew, every road after that led back to you

You made my heart stop, then beat brand new
One lunch break, smiled, and I fell for you
You made time freeze and you made life move, one little chance turned into me and you
From the first hello to the vows we prayed, I'd still choose you today, every time and always

You made my heart stop, then it'd be different
From a park bench night to the home we made, 14 years in and I'd choose it again
Every time and always, same as back then, my heart stopped
Every time and always
