I'd Buy a Yacht

Emma Burney, Olivia Burney

I stare outside every night before I sleep
Look at what I could have done
And what i could be
It doesn't mean enough to me to make a change
I just push it down till it comes up again
I don't want to scare you away with talk about home
Or who i used to be and who I used to call my own
It really only matters what happens in the moment
Well i'm not scared of you
But when I look at you I'm frozen
And now you've got me thinking about what I used to want
To marry rich and settle down
And buy myself a yacht
What if I acted on those feelings that were telling me to go
Would I still be happy now
Would I love my life so
And someone told me a long time ago
You've got to make the life you want and let the rest go
And you've got to make it count
Because you're way too young to settle down
I want to live my life as much as I possibly can
Before I make a home
Install a ceiling fan
And if life went how I planned
I'd be unhappy with a trashy van
I was talking to my friend
He said do you remember when
You wanted everything you have now and still you aren't content
Well i'm a different person now
Than who i was then
Maybe I'll go my whole life
Feeling this way
What is happiness and will I get there someday
Well that's just what life is
A big game of give and take
But i shouldn't be here
Cause i'm not gonna win the race
I want to live my life as much as I possibly can
Before I make a home
Install a ceiling fan
And if life went how I planned
I'd be unhappy with a trashy van
I want to live my life as much as I possibly can
Before I make a home
Install a ceiling fan
And if life went how I planned
I'd be unhappy with a trashy van
