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
