Here We Are-way Out In The Country Lyrics

words and Music by Arlo Guthrie



Here I am

Won't you take me in your arms tonight

And there you are

Looking like the stars are in your eyes

Here we go

You know it's been so long since we were lovers

I don't know

If I felt this way since then and baby why

Why we said good-bye

Why we sat and cried

Why we ever let this happen to us



I don't care

Where you've been, I've been there too

You know that

You and me

We had some growing on our own to do now

Let's get on

You know the time's a-wasting

Morning's breaking

Here we are

Looking like we used to be and baby why

Why we said good-bye

Why we sat and cried

Why we ever let this happen to us



There's a bird flying high

Way up in the air

And I am sitting here with you at my side

Way out in the country



There's a lot of real big trees

Rolling gently on the breeze

And I am playing with the bumble bees

Out in the country



Puffy clouds are in the air

If it rains well we won't care

'Cause you look good in your underwear

Way out in the country



Here I am

Let me take you in my arms and hold you

Once again

It feels like we are coming home and well

Remember when

We were young and so in love together

Here we are

Happy like we used to be, and baby why

Why we said good-bye

Why we stood and cried

Why we ever let this this happen to us



You know the time is at an end

And you and I can just be friends

And if we let this moment pass

I think we both know it won't come again
