Looking In for Number One - David Roth

I was looking all around, I was asking everyone I found

Do you know the meaning of the mysteries of life and love

But I was getting nowhere fast, my overview was overcast

I picked up every book I could, I did the things I thought I should

I was looking out for Number One, looking out for Number One

I thought that’s how the world was run was looking out for Number One

But something didn’t feel quite right, the more I looked, the less I liked

I networked, channeled, searched and such, I tried so hard to get in touch

And then one day out of the blue my inner voice came calling through

«You have the answer in your heart, try looking in, that’s where you start»

Looking in for Number One, looking in for Number One

Looking out is not much fun, try looking in for Number One

I used to jump to my conclusions, now I’m taking leaps of faith

Getting all my answers questioned, looking in and seeing straight

Now I have the master plan for finding out just who I am

It’s not so much what others see but how I look inside of me

Opening up to change and chances, take retreats and make advances

Following your own guru, just spell it out, gee, you are you

Looking in for Number One, looking in for Number One

Looking out is not much fun, try looking In for Number One

Looking in for Number One, looking in for Number One

Looking out is not much fun, try looking In for Number One

I’m looking in, I’ve just begun

I’m looking in

I’m looking in

I’m looking in for Number One
