Never Thought to Look

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

Ooh-ooh

I thought to look (I thought to look)

Oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh

Between the younger years of restless

And the settled here and now

Oh, why did I've doubts?

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
