I saw my boyfriend hanging with this girl that I hate 

He didn't have to tell why last night he was late 

I can't believe what you tell me 

Your lies have come undone 

Now I'm living on the run looking out for number one



I took a ride to the city 

Had to get out of this place 

I just can't stand the pity

When the tears fall down my face 

I used to think it was over 

But its only just begun 

Now I'm living on the run looking out for number one



One day you'll see me but only when your dreaming 

One day you'll say I was the one 

I used to ride on a Greyhound stashed away on a train 

Bought a ticket for the subway 

Playin' guitar in the rain 

I wanna follow the rivers to an island in the sun 

Now I'm living on the run looking out for number one



One day you'll see me but only when your dreaming 

One day you'll say I was the one 

Late at night trying to fight 

I just might think about him 

Right now I'm feeling fine 

I'm better off without him ya! 

One day you'll see me but only when your dreaming 

One day you'll say I was the one 

I know that on day you'll see me 

I'll haunt you when your dreaming 

One day you'll say I was the one 

I'm number one
