Where You Are
Everlife Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's hard to see life when we all seem so jaded
I don't know, you don't know
Why can't I find a way to show you now
It's hard for me to smile when I get so frustrated
The walls to your heart they're locked and they're gated
I don't know, you don't know I wanna find a place to go
[Chorus]
I've been up
I've been down
You know my smile
You know my frown
I just love when you're around
I wanna be
I wanna be
I wanna be
Where you are
Where you are
I'm walking around and I don't hear a sound
Except for the memory of a love that I've found
I wanna see what you see, do you know what we could be
Even in the dark, I'll take your hand
And see down this road that ends where you stand
I will know, you will know
You've given me a place to go where you are
[Chorus]
I'll give you my thoughts that I've held for so long
Scared to let go, what if I'm wrong
As I sit here tonight I don't care if I'm right
I just wanna be where you are
[Chorus: x2]
The lyrics to Everlife's song "Where You Are" are about the difficulty of finding uncomplicated love and genuine connection in a world where everyone seems jaded and guarded. The singer expresses frustration and yearning, wanting to find a way to show the person they care about how much they mean to them. They feel locked out of the other person's heart and want to find a place where they can be together, despite the obstacles in their way.
The chorus emphasizes the singer's willingness to go through ups and downs, smiling and frowning with their loved one, as long as they can be in each other's company. They reminisce about the memory of a love found and imagine a future together, even in the dark. The bridge reveals the singer's vulnerability and willingness to share their deepest thoughts with the person they care about, not caring if they are right or wrong as long as they can be where the other person is.
The song is a reflection of the human desire for connection and the struggle to find it. It speaks to the power of love to overcome obstacles and the courage it takes to open up and reveal one's true self.
