It’s 5 am, but I know it’s 8 o’clock back east
You’re probably getting ready, probably getting something to eat
I’m awake like an early bird, but the truth is I can’t sleep
I see your posts, it’s how I know you’re working on your job
Probably getting promoted, you’re always good at staying focused
Here I am in a studio, a couple hundred lonely feet
I remember what you said to me
Go ahead, Lone Rider
Go ahead and be happy on your own
You’re the Great Decider
You made a deal with a far-off hope
Go ahead, Lone Rider
I bet that you come crawling home
Go ahead, Lone Rider
Go ahead and be happy on your own
I should call a bit more often, but it’s easy to forget
Another birthday missed, another party skipped
In the name of a dream, I guess
What’s it worth when there’s no one here to celebrate when you make it?
You say that you’re happy but you know you’re faking
Go ahead, Lone Rider
Go ahead and be happy on your own
You’re the Great Decider
You made a deal with a far-off hope
Go ahead, Lone Rider
I bet that you come crawling home
Go ahead, Lone Rider
Go ahead and be happy on your own
They say you need someone to share it with
They say you need somebody
They say you need somebody
They say you need someone to share it with
They say you need somebody
They say you need someone
Go ahead, Lone Rider
Go ahead and be happy on your own
You’re the Great Decider
You made a deal with a far-off hope
Go ahead, Lone Rider
I bet that you come crawling home
Go ahead, Lone Rider
Go ahead and be happy on your own
It’s 5 am, where I am
You can’t be happy on your own
I see your posts, it’s how I know
You can’t be happy on your own
I should call a bit more often
Can’t be happy on your own
Go ahead, Lone Rider
You can never be happy on your own
Go ahead, Lone Rider
You can always turn around and come back home.
