Open house was on a Sunday It's getting harder to pretend. People pushing through the door Wearing clothes they can't afford; I always said I'd never be like one of them.
Between the younger years of restless And the settled here-and-now. All these questions that I ask And now that I am looking back, I see that what I had was what I found.
So why did I wish for a better life? After everything that I tried I couldn't see it. But if I only understood It's the only place I never thought to look.
Somehow I never even noticed All the beauty in between. A simple word, a quiet house A kiss before we fall asleep here on the couch. All I have is all I need.
So why did I wish for a better life? After everything that I tried I couldn't see it. But if I only understood It's the only place I never thought to look. Ohh. Thought to look. Ohh, ohh.
Between the younger years of restless And the settled here-and-now. Oh, why did I doubt?
Why did I wish for a better life? After everything that I tried I couldn't see it. But if I only understood It's the only place I never thought to look.
