Playing around with some words and tried to turn a sad song into a happy one.

Hey
I’m watching you,
trying out shoes
that you’d never purchase
Looking for deals,
sometimes you’d steal,
Stepping forward and straight
Out the exit
Night at the pool,
no bathing suit
You said let’s do it
Everything a game.
And I loved to play it
fun while it lasted.
But all my Half baked
daydreams livin’
rent‑free in my head
maybe i was misled—
All the pictures we held,
I didn’t think your love would change
Or you’d throw it all away
hey ay ay ay
hey ay ay ay
Saw a picture of you,
marrying soon
Things must be going better
Changing your life
new baby and wife
Your Happily Ever After
But all my Half baked
daydreams livin’
rent‑free in my head
maybe i was misled—
All the pictures we held,
But I didn’t think your love would change
Or you’d throw it all away
hey hay ay ay
hey hay ay ay
I know that somewhere you still stay
In all the little things you saved
You kept your video games close
Like they were pieces of your home
You’d be hanging out online
A different world than mine
I wonder if you ever miss
The ones you left behind ?

Great songs are rarely written; They are rewritten.
