Dora, I’d Choose You Again

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a porch light burning down a gravel road A rocking chair that's carried every load The years have worn the paint off of the door But this old house holds more love than before I was a man who wandered lost and wild Till you found me, and you chose to stay a while [Chorus] You saved me from myself When I couldn't find my way You gathered every broken part And taught my heart to stay Dora, you're the strongest soul The most giving heart I've known [Verse 2] I remember nights I'd almost given in But you never once let the darkness win You stood there with a courage I can't name And loved me through the shadow and the shame You raised our family on that faith of yours And showed me what a good man's living for [Chorus] You saved me from myself When I couldn't find my way You gathered every broken part And taught my heart to stay Dora, you're the strongest soul The most giving heart I've known [Bridge] You made me more than I could ever dream More than I imagined I could be I owe you every sunrise that I see 'Cause darlin', you gave my life back to me [Verse 3] Now our hair is silver and our steps are slow But I've loved every mile we've had to go And there's still so much road ahead to see I want you there, right here beside of me So on these weary knees I ask again My wife, my love, my strength, my dearest friend [Chorus] You saved me from myself When I couldn't find my way Now I'm asking one more time Will you marry me today Dora, you're the strongest soul The most giving heart I've known [Outro] You saved me from myself Now I'm yours till we're called home
