[Verse 1]
What I'm looking for
After all this time
Keeps me moving forward
Trying to find it
Since I learned to walk
All I've done is run
Ready, on my mark
Doesn't everyone need a place in the world
[Verse 2]
Could be right before your very eyes
Just beyond a door that's open wide
Could be far away or in your own backyard
There are those who say, you can look too hard
For your place in the world
[Bridge]
Take some of us a little longer
A few false starts going to make you stronger
When I'm sure, I've finally found it
Going to wrap these arms all around it
[Verse 3]
Could be one more mile
Or just one step back
In a lovers smile
Down a darkened path
Friends will take our side
Enemies will curse us
But to be alive is to know your purpose
[Outro]
It's your place in the world
Your place in the world
Your place in the world
