about

Where You Are is a song that explores the often chaotic journey of love. We have been fed a narrative of a perfect kind of love, that is effortless and uncomplicated, that means that you will find someone that fits every part of you flawlessly. More often than not, this isn't the case. It's the imperfection that makes love fulfilling, it’s in learning and growing that you find happiness that is gratifying because of the time you have spent nurturing it. To quote the track, "It's the hard work that makes it all worth it." In being open and vulnerable, and being patient with each other, embracing each other’s shortcomings and allowing yourself to be seen, you find something that is pure and unadulterated, if not sometimes a little turbulent. Spring is encapsulated in this song, with the cycle of love getting ready to begin again. It is a time of rebirth, of hope and of new beginnings following the taxing and draining experience of the cold and lonely winter months. Spring opens up a fresh perspective, and makes way for a new path to be walked with fresh eyes and a wealth of experience and wisdom.

lyrics

I watched you come undone
Set your walls down like the sun
Hope will keep us one
Love will keep us fun
Finger on the gun
Lay your chest down

Baby lay your head on my lap
And let’s just sit and relax
wait for the Sun to come back

I said someone take me home and show me what it takes
Show me how to break
How to make something that’s real enough to feel

I wanna be where you are
Moment stopped in time heavy on my mind
We’ve been running lines steady on incline
I wanna be where you are
Cos honey it's the hard work
Baby that makes it all worth it

Laying next to you in bed
Try make your freckles connect
Borderline obsessed
In each other’s heads
More than just best friends (more than best friends)

Fading through wading through me and you in it together we’ve only just begun already ready ready to weather

I wanna be where you are
Moment stopped in time heavy on my mind
We’ve been running lines steady on incline
I wanna be where you are
Cos honey it's the hard work
Baby that makes it all worth it
