Out There

Out there there's a girl she's
Losin' sleep over a boy
He won't matter when she's 20
Out there there's a man who's
Losin' sleep over bills and booze
So much to pay
So much to lose
Grandpas in their robes
Play their radios
Youngins slam their doors
Mothers do the chores
And you're across the ocean
Down the block
We haven't met
Or even talked
Livin' our own separate lives
I'm here in my bedroom baby
Thinkin' bout the other seven billion people lately
Are we brought together by the fates
Or is my soulmate the grocery boy I passed on aisle eight
Cause I wanted cheerios
Would I even buy those if my mom never got them for breakfast
When I was a kid
It's funny how a thousand choices led up to something more
You could've ended up anywhere else
But you're here at my door
Out there there's a woman
She's finally getting her degree
She had a baby at fifteen
Out there there's a boy
He's playing baseball
But it's not at all his dream
His dad's the head coach of the team
Children in the grass argue over who's the fastest
Fathers kick their ass
'Cause they're failing all their classes
Will the person in the seat across from me on the bus
Be some momentous part of my life
I'm here in my bedroom baby
Thinkin' bout the other seven billion people lately
Are we brought together by the fates
Or is my soulmate the guy that I seated at table eight
When I was a hostess
Would I even notice
If the person I'm meant to be with
Wrote me a bad tip
It's funny how a thousand choices decide where we go
You could've ended up anywhere else but you're here in my room
Out there
There's man
There's a girl
There's a woman
Out there
There's a boy
There's a girl
There's a woman
