[Intro] [Verse 1] Somewhere Dad answered the phone. Somewhere Mom wasn't so tired. Somewhere The doctor smiled Before he spoke. Somewhere The highway stayed empty. Somewhere The storm came late. Somewhere We built a whole life Five minutes The other way. [Pre-Chorus] Nobody tells you This is the last time. The last ride home. The last ordinary Tuesday. History Never knocks. It just... Walks in. [Chorus] Everything That never happened Still found A place To stay. Every unopened door. Every missed hello. Every life I'll never know. Maybe We don't grieve The things we lost. Maybe We grieve The things We never had. [Verse 2 ] Somewhere The test came back clean. Somewhere She kept the baby. Somewhere He made the team. Somewhere Nobody had To be brave. Somewhere We stayed friends. Somewhere Grandpa lived Long enough To tell me One more story. Somewhere You stayed. [Bridge] I hope Whoever You became Was loved. Even if You were never Me. I hope You laughed More often. I hope You called home. I hope You never knew The reasons I wrote This song. [Final Chorus] Everything That never happened Sat beside me Growing older. Quiet enough To call it life. Every empty chair. Every almost kiss. Every birthday That came Too soon. Every dream That never learned My name. Everything That never happened... Still happened To someone. To someone. [Outro] Somewhere... To someone. [Outro] Somewhere... To someone. [Outro] Somewhere... Dad answered the phone. Somewhere... Nobody had To be brave. Somewhere... You made it home. ... I'll never know.
