If I hadn't been so headstrong
Eighteen moving out on my own
God only knows
Just enough bus fare for a one-way ticket out to San Antone
God only knows
Lookin' back on every turn, every perfect mistake
If I made different choices than the ones that I made
(Chorus)
There wouldn't be a you, there wouldn't be an us
Could've gone on forever not knowing real love
Wouldn't be a right here holding you close
Where would my life be without you
God only knows
God only knows
If I hadn't laughed when you ordered that double shot caramel soy latte
God only knows
If you never would've turned around and talked to me and gone out on that first date
God only knows
If I was seven minutes early or you were twelve minutes late
If I had enough bus fare to make it to LA
(Chorus)
There wouldn't be a you, there wouldn't be an us
Could've gone on forever not knowing real love
Wouldn't be a right here holding you close
Where would my life be without you
God only knows
There wouldn't be a you, there wouldn't be an us
Could've gone on forever not knowing real love
Wouldn't be a right here holding you close
Where would my life be without you
Where would my life be without you
God only knows
(Outro)
If I hadn't been so headstrong
Eighteen moving out on my own
God only knows
