Speaking different languages again
Finding cracks in photographs
We hadn't taken yet
Pulling at a thread the future starts to come undone
Now the house we made is haunted
And we'd only just begun

To build it up
To work it out
To be each other's steady ground
You showed me how

It wasn't obvious
No writing on the walls
It wasn't buying flowers
Or the wait up, late night calls
It ain't about a ring
Or having twenty kids
Love's what you choose to forgive
Love's what you choose to forgive

Speaking different languages again
You were painting flowers
I was off in Neverland
It's just like me to need to go against the grain
Stubborn as an August drought when all you need is rain

To build it up
Work it out
To be each other's steady ground
You showed me how

It wasn't obvious
No writing on the walls
It wasn't buying flowers
Or the wait up, late night calls
It ain't about a ring
Or having twenty kids
Love's what you choose to forgive
Love's what you choose to forgive

Say it wasn't all for nothing all over again
Tell me everything'll the way it was and then
You kissed me like we never broke our promises
Love's what we choose to forgive

Speaking different languages again
Lately I've been liking how that sounds
You showed me how

It wasn't obvious
No writing on the walls
It wasn't buying flowers
Or the wait up, late night calls
It ain't about a ring
Or having twenty kids
Love's what you choose to forgive
Love's what you choose to forgive
