The List Lyrics by Karli June

Where You Come From - EP

2022

[Verse 1]
I'll be married by the time I'm 25
To the boy from the high school dance
First guy who held my hand
And I'll have a white Mercedes in my driveway
Live in a big old house
On the good side of town
[Pre-Chorus]
Thought all my dreams would happen just like that
I wrote 'em down, I prayed 'em out, but looking back
[Chorus]
Some things look good on paper but sooner or later
You find out what you want ain't always what you need
Sometimes you try to plan it and you don't understand it
When where you ended up ain't where you thought you'd be
But then I think of all the things I might'vе missed
If I'da got what I put on the list
[Verse 2]
I used to gеt so disappointed in myself
All the boxes I'd left unchecked
What hadn't happened yet
[Pre-Chorus]
But now I can't imagine life without
The twists and turns, the lessons learned, the perfect mess
[Chorus]
Some things look good on paper but sooner or later
You find out what you want ain't always what you need
Sometimes you try to plan it and you don't understand it
When where you ended up ain't where you thought you'd be
But then I think of all the things I might've missed
If I'da got what I put on the list
[Bridge]
Ohh
Yeah, I made a list and tried to cross it off
But what I asked for can't compare to what I got
[Chorus]
Some things look good on paper
But sometimes what you want ain't always what you need
Sometimes you try to plan it and you don't understand it
When where you ended up ain't where you thought you'd be
But then I think of all the things I might've missed
The kinda life I never would have lived
If I'da got what I put on the list
