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 hitched a ride on a Greyhound stashed away on a train Bought a ticket for the subway Playing guitar in the rain I want to follow the rivers to an island in the sun Now I'm living on the run looking out for number One day you'll see me but only when your dreaming One day you'll say I was the one Late at night start 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 say I was the one) One day you'll see me but only when your dreaming One day you'll say I was the one I know that one 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
