Lyrics Never Thought to Look - David Hodges

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.
