Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm glad I never lived next to the water
So I could never get used to the beach
And I'm glad I never grew up on a mountain
To figure out how high the world could reach
[Verse 2]
I love the miles between me and the city
Where I quietly imagine every street
And I'm glad I'm only picturing the moment
I'm glad she never fell in love with me
[Verse 3]
For some the world's a treasure to discover
And your scenery should never stay the same
And they're tradin' in their dreams for explanations
All in an attempt to entertain
[Verse 4]
But I love the miles between me and the city
Where I quietly imagine every street
And I'm glad I'm only picturing the moment
I'm glad she never fell in love with me
[Verse 5]
The trick of love is to never let it find you
It's easy to get over missing out
I know the how's and when's
But now and then she's all I think about
[Verse 6]
I wonder how it feels to be famous
But wonder is as far as I will go
Because I'd probably lose myself in all the pictures
And end up being someone I don't know
[Verse 7]
So it's probably best I stay in Indiana
Just dreamin' of the world as it should be
Where every day is a battle to convince myself
I'm glad she never fell in love with me
