Where Are You Now?
Ian Van Dahl Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where are you now

Lie awake and wonder where you are tonight
How will I know
Search for a trace, I look around but you're out of sight
Where did you go

Thought your love for me was strong
Was I the only one
I don't know where we went wrong
Why did you leave me
Why did you have to go

I had a dream last night
A dream about you and me
Love should last forever baby
Where are you now

Contemplate the promise you made you'd be my friend
Until the end
My heart aches, I'm in a daze, live in no-man's land
Where do I stand

Thought your love for me was strong
Was I the only one
I don't know where we went wrong
Why did you leave me
Why did you have to go

I had a dream last night
A dream about you and me




Love should last forever baby
Where are you now

Mexem com a gente porque ela escreveu as letras e as fez assim por causa da traição do noivo... Ela estava sentindo exatamente isso que ela escreveu.
