Sometimes you think you're doing a magic
And sometimes you realize the magic is doing you
And this is one of those moments
♪
What if none of this happened?
It's nothin' like I imagined it
What if I wasn't this strong?
Mmm-hmm, mhm
What if it all just went different?
So many times, I wish I woulda just listened
I wasn't ready for it all
There's so many things I'd change, but I can't
There's so many things I said that I wish I left unsaid
Time's passin' me by
Gotta just laugh, so I don't cry
Oh, if you asked me then, where I wanted to be
It'd look somethin' like this, livin' out my wildest of dreams
But life, sometimes, ain't always what it seems
If you ask me now, all I've wanted to be is happy
♪
I remember when I was little
Before I knew that anyone could be evil
These egos, some people
Playin' with my innocence like at a casino
But I refuse to be jaded (oh)
Still paintin' rainbows all over my face, oh
I've gotten used to the fall
Fall
So many things I'd change, but I can't
There's so many things I said that I wish I left unsaid
Time's passin' me by
Gotta just laugh, so I don't die
But if you asked me then, where I wanted to be
It looks somethin' like this, livin' out my wildest of dreams
But life ain't always what it seems
Now lies got me fallin' to my knees
But if you asked me now, all I've wanted to be
