:And then you find yourself
:[Verse 2]
:When you make new friends

:Are now clear as a bell
:And you find yourself
:Yeah that's when you find yourself
:[Chorus]
: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 have happened
:'Cause sometimes when you lose your way
:It's really just as well
:'Cause you find yourself
:Yeah, that's when you find yourself

:To live for someone else
:And then you find yourself
:Yeah that's when you find yourself
