Lyrics
When you find yourself
In some far off place,
And it causes you
To rethink some things,
You start to sense,
That slowly you're becoming someone else.
And then you find yourself.
When you make new friends
In a brand new town,
And you start to think
About settling down,
The things that would have been lost on you
Are now clear as a bell.
And you find yourself,
Yeah, that's when you find yourself.
Well, you go through life
So sure of where you're heading,
And you wind up lost,
And it's the best thing that could happen.
'Cause sometimes when you lose your way,
It's really just as well.
'Cause you find yourself
Yeah, that's when you find yourself.
(Instrumental)
When you meet the one
That you've been waiting for,
And she's everything
That you want and more,
You look at her, and you finally start
To live for someone else.
And then you find yourself,
Yeah, that's when you find yourself.
We go through life
So sure of where we're heading,
And then we wind up lost,
And it's the best thing that could happen.
Sometimes when you lose your way,
It's really just as well.
Because you find yourself,
Yeah, that's when you find yourself.
