This song conveys the thoughts of a mother to her unborn or just born child.

The title "I choose you" reflects the woman's choice to become a mother versus other options.

A mother's love is expressed in the line "I could live by the light in your eyes"

The lifelong love of a mother for her child is expressed as a "My whole heart Will be yours forever This is a beautiful start To a lifelong love letter"

Their shared love is expressed as " I will become yours and you will become mine"

And

" I get to be the other half of you"

She admits her unpreparedress and that she will make mistakes but that they will learn together.

This is a sweet song about a mother pledging her love and dedication to get precious child.
