you never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option you have.

I don’t know why you chose me, but you did.
And ever since, you’ve changed me, for the better.
I don’t know why you chose me, but I’m glad you did.

I don’t know why you chose me, but you did.
And ever since, you’ve never left me.
Others can’t say that, as I’m sure you can see
I don’t know why you chose me, but I’m glad you did.

I don’t know why you chose me, but you did.
And ever since, you have brought smiles and laughs to my life
You cheer me up when I could cry.
I don’t know why you chose me, but I’m glad you did.

I don’t know why you chose me,
But God does and He knows I’m thankful for you.
