[Verse 1]
Startin' quarterback on your high school football team
You had everything, all that I wanted to be
But then you met a girl from out west
And then one kiss turned into three kids
Now when I ask how you're doin'
You just sigh and say you never sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
And you've been sittin' ten minutes in the driveway
And she's callin' wonderin' if you're on your way
But you're already home
The only time you get to be alone
[Chorus]
So did you settle down too soon?
Gave up on the stars and stayed on the moon
See your family through the stained glass door
This dream wasn't yours, you guess it'll do
No judgement here, I promise
But have you done everything you wanted?
I wanna know, did you settle down too soon?
I haven't, but I'm happy
Oh, and I hope you are too
[Verse 2]
Talkin' down to me, you must think that I'm so lost
Yeah, what you have is nice, but I don't want that at all, no
'Cause how I'm living, oh yeah, it's different
I left a small town and I don't miss it
We only get one life, so there isn't really right or wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
Now you're workin' for the family company and
Goin' golfin' with your buddies on the weekend
And yeah, it all sounds great
But when I think about your glory days
I wonder
[Chorus]
Did you settle down too soon?
Gave up on the stars and stayed on the moon
See your family through the stained glass door
This dream wasn't yours, you guess it'll do
No judgement here, I promise
But have you done everything you wanted?
I wanna know, did you settle down too soon?
I haven't, but I'm happy
[Bridge]
Don't want you wake up tomorrow
And ask yourself, "Where did I go?"
I wonder
[Chorus]
Did you settle down too soon?
Gave up on the stars and stayed on the moon
See your family through the stained glass door
This dream wasn't yours, you guess it'll do
No judgement here, I promise
But have you done everything you wanted? (I wanna know)
Did you settle down too soon?
Gave up on the stars and stayed on the moon
See your family through the stained glass door
This dream wasn't yours, you guess it'll do
No judgement here, I promise
But have you done everything you wanted?
I wanna know, did you settle down too soon?
I haven't, but I'm happy
