A Place In The World

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
 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
 Takes some of us a little longer
 A few false starts gonna make you stronger
 When I'm sure I've finally found it
 Gonna wrap these arms all around it
 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
 It's your place in the world
 Your place in the world
 Your place in the world
