Expats Are Expats for a Reason

1/23/2020

Expats are expats for a reason, and there's a reason I travel alone."

Verse 1
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

Verse 2
On the road, you make friends for the weekend
To share places that you've never seen
When I was 20, these “friendships” had meaning
But now, they just feel so routine

Pre-chorus
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

Chorus
‘Cause expats are expats for a reason
And there’s a reason I travel alone

Verse 3
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.

Verse 4
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

Pre-chorus
Chorus

Verse 5
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
