[Verse]

You wore those big framed glasses and a cardigan so neat

I walked right past your open heart to the rhythm of a different beat

Dated boys with shiny cars and smiles that never reached their eyes

But all those polished hearts turned out to be disguise

[Verse 2]

Thought I’d find a cowboy with a heart wild and free

Or maybe a rock star who’d sing just for me

Chased a million dreams but none would fit my soul

While you sat there waiting just as steady as a pole

[Chorus]

Now I'm back to square one thinking of that little town

Realized all this running just kept me spinning round

Your simple love's the answer I've been trying to outrun

Now it's you and me together back to square one

[Verse 3]

You always knew just how to laugh at all my crazy schemes

Held my hand through the dark and cheered my wildest dreams

I chased a storm only to find sunshine by your side

A nerdy kind of magic that I could no longer hide

[Bridge]

Guess the heart takes its own road doesn't care for fancy rides

It'll lead you back to where the truest love resides

Through the twists and turns of fate and all we've done

I find myself returning back to square one

[Chorus]

Now I'm back to square one thinking of that little town

Realized all this running just kept me spinning round

Your simple love's the answer I've been trying to outrun

Now it's you and me together back to square one
