Indiana - Jon McLaughlin

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

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

For some the world’s a treasure to discover

And your scenery should never stay the same

And they’re trading in their dreams for explanations

All in an attempt to entertain

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

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

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

So it’s probably best I stay in Indiana

Just dreaming 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
