I've seen the sun set in Rio
Walked the Great Smoky Mountains covered in snow
Seen all the fountains and frescos in Rome
But mostly I saw them alone

Hoped to find comfort by working
Was the first to arrive and the last one to leave
On my days off I thought I'd be fulfilled
But an empty house was all that I built

All the roads that I've travelled
Trying to be number one
Never gave me what I'm looking for
Only kept me on the run
All the crowds that were cheering
The medals I've won
Don't mean a thing till I find someone

I looked for light in the city
The adrenaline rush of a night on the town
Feeling alive and so high from the sound
But it's over when no one's around

All the roads that I've travelled
Trying to be number one
Never gave me what I'm looking for
Only kept me on the run
All the crowds that were cheering
The medals I've won
Don't mean a thing till I find someone

The higher I go the faster I fall
The higher I go the faster I fall

All the roads that I've travelled
Trying to be number one
Never gave me what I'm looking for
Only kept me on the run
All the crowds that were cheering
The medals I've won
Don't mean a thing till I find someone
