Rather Be
H.E.R. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thoughts of you running through my head
As I lie awake in my bed
Know you want this, don't be afraid, babe
And now we're standing face to face
Baby, tell it to me now
Everything you dreamed about
Remember this night
Show me how you feel
Let me know it's real tonight, oh
There's nowhere I'd rather be than here with you, you, you
There's nowhere I'd rather be than here with you, you, you
There's no place I'd rather be
Feel the energy in this room
So high, you take me to the moon, oh yeah
Oh, what we got is something else
So fire, I can't help myself
Wanna see some fireworks
Let our love explode
So I'll rerun every episode
I'm in overload
We'll remember this night
Show me how you feel
Let me know it's real tonight, oh
There's nowhere I'd rather be than here with you, you, you
There's nowhere I'd rather be than here with you, you, you
There's no place I'd rather be
No place I'd rather be
There's nowhere I'd rather be than here with you, you, you
There's nowhere I'd rather be than here with you, you, you
There's no place I'd rather be

Thoughts of you running through my head
I can't stop thinking about you
As I lie awake in my bed
Even when I try to sleep, all I can do is think of you
Know you want this, don't be afraid, babe
I can tell you want me too, so don't be scared to show it
And now we're standing face to face
We're finally in the same place, looking at each other
Baby, tell it to me now
Say what's on your mind, don't hold back
Everything you dreamed about
Tell me your wildest fantasies
Don't make sense to run around it ooh, it's now or never
There's no point in avoiding it, we should act on our feelings now
Remember this night
Let's make this a memorable experience
Show me how you feel
I want to see how you express your emotions
Let me know it's real tonight, oh
I want to believe that this connection between us is genuine
There's nowhere I'd rather be than here with you, you, you
Being with you right now is my top priority
Feel the energy in this room
The atmosphere is filled with passion and excitement
So high, you take me to the moon, oh yeah
The intensity of our emotions is lifting me up
Oh, what we got is something else
There's no other feeling that compares to what we share
So fire, I can't help myself
Our chemistry is so powerful that I can't resist it
Wanna see some fireworks
I want to feel that spark between us ignite
Let our love explode
Let's give it our all and let our passion burst forth
So I'll rerun every episode
I'll replay every moment we spend together in my mind
I'm in overload
My emotions are overwhelming me
No place I'd rather be
There's no other situation or location that could replace what we have
