Verse Well I ain't worth much, my face is far too common You could stack me up but still I'd be forgotten I've never found a place among the chosen Ahh but I rode the wave that gives the world its motion I found you When the music played I probably wasn't dancing When the judges judged you know I wasn't winning When the new year came I sang without a lover But when the world stood up it set me on its shoulders (I found you) Chorus You're why we leave home Why we've always roamed Why we're not alone You're the temples crumbling The whole world rumbling You're not alone Verse Like the hands that first drew fire from the darkness Or the eyes that first perceived tomorrow's promise Or the lips that first called songs out from the ruins I'm the one who's standing here for every human I found you Chorus You're why we leave home Why we've always roamed Why we're not alone You're the temples crumbling The whole world rumbling You're not alone
