Lyrics

Verse

I met him in a coffee shop,

He smiled and the whole world stopped.

Nova Scotia in his voice so sweet,

Salt in his hair and boots on his feet.

Verse

He dives where the ocean sings,

Keeps little fish like precious things.

A Boy Scout heart, a lineman’s hands,

He builds the world and understands.

Verse

He’s my best friend, my steady flame,

Since that first day, I’ve never been the same.

He showed me love in the simplest way,

And I thank the stars every single day.

Pre-chorus

I wanna walk with Chris by the ocean shore,

Where the waves roll in and our hearts want more.

Chorus

He’s got my soul, my every breath,

My East Coast boy, my life’s best bet.

We’ll buy a house by the ocean tide,

Laugh through the years with nothing to hide.

He’s the one I’ll always choose —

Chris, I love you more than words could ever prove.

Verse

He climbs the lines and braves the storm,

But in my arms, he’s soft and warm.

I steal his hoodies, wear them proud,

Wrapped in his scent, I float on clouds.

Verse

We battle in Mario Kart late at night,

He lets me win — but not without a fight.

Morning cuddles, sleepy grins,

He’s my king, and my heart always wins.

Verse

We’ll chase the stars and skip the signs,

Dive through dreams and cross state lines.

Grow old together, hand in hand,

In a seaside home on golden sand.

And I’ll thank the stars for the day we met —

My happy little accident.

Pre-chorus

I wanna walk with Chris by the ocean shore,

Where the waves roll in and our hearts want more.

Chorus

He’s got my soul, my every breath,

My East Coast boy, my life’s best bet.

We’ll buy a house by the ocean tide,

Laugh through the years with nothing to hide.

He’s the one I’ll always choose —

Chris, I love you more than words could ever prove.
