Did You Settle Down Too Soon
Starting quarterback on your high school football team
You had everything all that I wanted to be
But then you met a girl from out west
And then one kiss turned into three kids
Now when I ask how you're doing
You just sigh and say you never sleep
And you've been sitting ten minutes in the driveway
And she's calling wondering if you're on your way
But you're already home
The only time you get to be alone
So, did you settle down too soon?
Gave up on the stars and stayed on the moon
See your family through the stained-glass door
This dream wasn't yours, you guess it'll do
No judgment here, I promise
But have you done everything you wanted?
I wanna know
Did you settle down too soon?
I haven't but I'm happy
And I hope you are too
Talking down to me, you must think I'm so lost
Yeah, what you have is nice, but I don't want that at all
'Cause how I'm breathing
Oh, yeah, it's different
I left a small town
And I don't miss it
We only got one life
So there isn't really right or wrong
Now you're working for the family company and
Going golfing with your buddies on the weekend
And yeah, it all sounds great
But when I think about your glory days
I wonder
Did you settle down too soon?
Gave up on the stars and stayed on the moon
See your family through the stained-glass door
This dream wasn't yours, you guess it'll do
No judgment here I promise
But have you done everything you wanted?
I wanna know
Did you settle down too soon?
I haven't but I'm happy
Don't want you wake up tomorrow
And ask yourself, "Where did I go?"
I wonder
Did you settle down too soon?
Gave up on the stars and stayed on the moon
See your family through the stained-glass door
This dream wasn't yours, you guess it'll do
No judgment here I promise
But have you done everything you wanted?
I wanna know
Did you settle down too soon?
Gave up on the stars and stayed on the moon
See your family through the stained-glass door
This dream wasn't yours, you guess it'll do
No judgment here I promise
But have you done everything you wanted?
I wanna know
Did you settle down too soon?
I haven't but I'm happy
