Brendan Abernathy Married In A Year Lyrics

[Verse]
Another girl I dated married
I chased the heartbreak with the pantry
Seven down, how many to go?
I'm insecure and I wanna know
Was it my great mistake to light that fire
With him standing there?
Did I set that stage, get you high
To settle for average and fair?

[PreChorus]
Am I unattractive or too romantic?
Fuel for your love affair, hmm, hmm
[Chorus]
I thought I'd love you in the morning, babe
Oh, I guess you loved him an evening late
I can't believe I ever believed in fate
Oh, was it ever gonna be was it ever gonna be me?

[Post Chorus]
You'll be married in a year in the suburbs
With a kid on the way in three
Convincing yourself you're living the American dream
And I'll be dancing out in California
The kid who got it all wrong
Convincing myself that one day I'll write a love song

[Verse]
Was it my great mistake to light that fire With him standing there?
When I thought I found myself
I lost it fair and square

[PreChorus]
In a car across the country
Trying to make some stranger love me, hmm, hmm

[Chorus]
I thought I'd love you in the morning, babe
Oh, I guess you loved him an evening late
I can't believe I ever believed in fate
Oh, was it ever gonna be was it ever gonna be me?
[Bridge]
There ain't a door in this city with enough for me
Oh, I'm just a wide-eyed boy too wild and free
Don't go claim the old "It's not you, it's me"
Oh, I've been around the block to feel when it's over
And when it's over

[Post Chorus]
You'll be married in a year in the suburbs
With a kid on the way in three
Convincing yourself you're living the American dream
And I'll be dancing out in California
The kid who got it all wrong
Convincing myself that one day I'll write a love song
