I set out and started exploring
Ask around and they'd say I am blessed
On my own, empowered, and soaring
The whole world became my address
On the road, you make friends for the weekend
To see places that you've never seen
When I was 20, these "friendships" had meaning
But now, they just feel so routine
While groups of friends all laugh together
Make memories that will last forever
I'm on my own
I've reaped what I've sown
'Cause expats are expats for a reason
And there's a reason I travel alone
Every place looks better in photos
You can edit till you get it just right
Every place looks better in photos
And, I hate to admit, so do I.
You can only tell so many stories
About El Nido, Bagan, and Cebu
You can only burn so many bridges
Till you see the common factor is you
While groups of friends all laugh together
Make memories that will last forever
I'm on my own
I've reaped what I've sown
'Cause expats are expats for a reason
And there's a reason I travel alone
Board a plane and fly somewhere different
New culture, strange food, stunning views
If only changing myself were so easy
I could wake up and be someone new
While groups of friends all laugh together
Make memories that will last forever
I'm on my own
I've reaped what I've sown
'Cause expats are expats for a reason
And there's a reason I travel alone
'Cause expats are expats for a reason
And there's a reason I travel alone
There's a reason I travel alone
There's a reason I travel alone
There's a reason I travel alone
