Lyrics:

(eric carmen)

It's been a long time comin'
But I think I've got it figured out
Sometimes the easiest things are still
The hardest ones to learn about

Well I was strugglin' so hard for my freedom
And it was there all the time
But I just couldn't see it

I think I found myself
I think I found what I'm lookin' for
I think I found myself
(don't you know)
I think I found what I'm lookin' for

Well I got sidetracked somewhere
Though I really can't recall just when
I lost my inspiration
And I couldn't get it back again
(no)

I trusted everyone else so completely
Well I was deaf, dumb and blind
But I'll be damned if I'll let 'em defeat me

I think I found myself
(don't you know)
I think I found what I'm lookin' for
I think I found myself
(don't you know)
I think I found what I'm lookin' for

I'm tired of tricks and politics
And futures burning bright
I'm on the line and out of time
For once in my life
I'm gonna do what I think is right

I think I found myself
(don't you know)
I think I found what I'm lookin' for
I think I found myself
I think I found what I'm lookin' for
