[Verse 1]
I might have been a singer
Who sailed around the world
A gambler who wins millions
And spent it all on girls
I might have been a poet
Who walked upon the moon
A scientist who would tell the world
I discovered something new
I might have loved a king
And been the one to end a war
A criminal who drinks champagne
And never could be caught
[Pre-Chorus]
But among your books
Among your clothes
Among the noise and fuss
I've let it go
[Chorus]
I can't stop and catch my breath
And look no further for happiness
And I will not turn again
Cause my heart has found its home
[Verse 2]
Everyone I'll never meet
And the friends I won't now make
The adventures that they could have been
And the risks I'll never take
[Pre-Chorus]
But among your books
Among your clothes
Among the noise and fuss
I've let it go
[Chorus]
I can't stop and catch my breath
And look no further for happiness
And I will not turn again
Cause my heart has found its home
