The Boy I Almost Was

[Verse 1]

He wakes up at 6:03 to a coffee and a kiss

I wake up at 1:30 to the eighteen calls I missed

He drives to work, I drive myself crazy

What if so wise in a town full of maybes

He gets home at 5:05 and I'm still getting ready

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh my God

Everything, everywhere all at once

I hope he's having fun over there because

[Chorus]

One left town and the other settled down

Round and round and I can't figure out

Who's happier?

Who's happier?

One got things and the other got a ring

Diffеrent dreams and I can't help but think

Who's happiеr?

Who's happier?

Me or the boy I almost was

[Verse 2]

He goes out to walk the dogs in his warmest winter coat

And I go walk the boulevard

'Cause there's always summer on the west coast

Sun on my face and gold in my chain

If he saw me now he'd say that I changed

And that's okay people do

One of us is better off but I don't know who

[Chorus]

One left town and the other settled down

Round and round and I can't figure out

Who's happier?

Who's happier?

One got things and the other got a ring

Different dreams and I can't help but think

Who's happier?

Who's happier?

Me or the boy I almost was

[Bridge]

Who's got the half that's whole?

Who's got the life they want?

Who's found the one to hold?

Who's really got it all?

[Chorus]

One left town and the other settled down

Round and round and I can't figure out

Who's happier?

Who's happier?

One got things and the other got a ring

Different dreams and I can't help but think

Who's happier?

Who's happier?

Me or the boy I almost was
