Where You Wanna Be Lyrics

Where You Wanna Be lyrics

Hey there stranger 

 Do you remember?

 You were a part of my life

 Early December 

 Think I remember?

 Sentiment cuts like a knife

 The seasons are changing

 Life's rearranging

 Full of could have dones

 Would a have beens

 It's all your fault

 And where've you been

 And how times goes

 And though I don't even know

 How to fill in the spaces

 of the love you've erased in my life

 

 Are you where you wanted to be?

 Did you get there easily?

 Did I make you sacrifice?

 Did you make a sharp left

 When you should have turned right?

 Are you where you wanted to be?

 Did you sell off all of your gold

 Did you trade it in?

 Did you wait for love

 Or settle for somebody to hold? 

 

 And barely symphonic 

 But strangely ironic

 Moments contained in one glance

 Oh how I adored you

 But now I'm ignored by you. 

 Nowhere a tint of romance

 And now it's vaguely familiar

 I think I remember sharing every single intimacy

 It doesn't seem so strange to me that we barely entertained

 Even the politest of phrases

 But sometimes at night

 I conjure you up in my mind.

 

 Are you where you wanted to be?

 Did you get there easily?

 Did I make you sacrifice?

 Did you make a sharp left

 when you should have turned right?

 Are you where you wanted to be?

 Did you sell off all of your gold

 Did you trade it in?

 Did you wait for love

 Or settle for somebody to hold. 

 

 While I was busy 

 Perfecting the art

 Of deflecting compliments

 I took it too far

 And I let a ripple run right through my heart

 Of battle stations we're building

 You and I just grew apart

 We grew apart

 

 While I decided 

 To make everyone else happy

 I just put aside

 My foolish pride

 I guess I denied

 My own desire

 I was too busy pleasing

 To ever be pleased

 I forgot how to breathe

 Or question anything

 Or ask why?

 Am I?

 

 Am I where I wanted to be?

 Did I get here easily?

 Did I make a sacrifice?

 Did I take a sharp left

 When I should have turned right?

 Am I where I wanted to be?

 Can I sell off all of my gold?

 Can I trade it in?

 Will I wait for love

 Or settle for somebody to hold. 

 

 I'd settle for somebody to hold now

 

 You know that I've been up and I've been down

 I've been picked up and spun around

 I'd do it all again

 If I could just have somebody to hold now

 I just need somebody to hold me now

 Could somebody hold me now?

 I just want somebody to hold me now

 I'd do it all again
