Wherever You Are
Celeste Prince Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's time to move on
To another place, another space, maybe circling some other sun
Don't ask why, don't ask how
I still can't explain
To say goodbye, goodbye for now till I see you again
In the sunlight that's where I'll be
In the sunrise in the twilight I'll be the morning and the evening star
I will be there with you wherever you are
Life is strange, such joy and pain
The betrayal and the kiss
It maybe meant to be, maybe destiny
Leads us down a path like this
Child is born, true love is sworn
All the in-between
Well you walk on, walk on until the path is gone
Learning love is the only everything
So it's goodnight, things go wrong
but it's alright
We're all just passin' through here
At the speed of light
In these lyrics, Celeste Prince talks about the inevitability of change and the transient nature of life. She says that it's time to move on because what's done is done, and we have to go to another place, a different space, and maybe circulate around some other sun. She doesn't give any explanation as to why we have to leave other than acknowledging that it's part of life's process.
She reminds us that despite the distance, we're always connected by love, and we'll be with our loved ones wherever they are. If it's daytime, she'll be in the sunlight, and if it's nighttime, she'll be in the moonlight. She'll be the morning and evening star in the sunrise and the twilight. We're always together, even when we're apart. She goes on to describe how strange life can be, with its joys and pains, the highs and lows we all experience.
The song recognizes that things go wrong, but it's alright because we're all passing through here at the speed of light, and we must keep moving forward. In essence, the song is about valuing the people and the moments we have in life, recognizing that nothing lasts forever, but love does. It's a beautiful reminder that even when we're far apart, we can still cherish and hold on to the memories that keep us together.

Sweet November. I saw it a long time ago. Ages is pass. Nothing changes. I still love this movie. And my lovely Charlize Theron and Keanu Reeves... maybe bit older. But still sweet. Song... mind-blowing. And still, cry... blowing.
@zandrokos
I found this song through Sweet November as well and it is one of my favorites. I had a very close friend who I was in love with who was going through a lot of health issues and i had lost both of my parents to cancer previously and he just cut me off completely.

The love of my life died in 1996 and this song always reminds me of him! I think he is in the sunlight and the moonlight and is wherever I am as he was my soulmate! :)
