Where'd You Go
Jordy Maxwell Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

"I'm homeward bound
There's no one around
Such a nice place to be
Got my bottle of wine and I think of you a thousand times
Think I'll stay here under the trees
Another morning in bed. Another morning somewhere
Oh how lovely this life could be
Where’d you go my love? Where’d you go? Where’d you go my love

So I've come back home to start a flame, but I get caught up in these ways again
And those days I’m here, it feels the same
But it took some time to realise
That I'm still finding sadness in these eyes
And I miss the way I used to be

Where'd you go my love
Where’d you go? Where do you go my love

What the hell am I doing here
It's the same shit over again.
What the hell am I doing here
Over and over again
What the hell am I doing here

It’s the same shit over again
What the hell am I doing here"

Line by Line Meaning

I'm homeward bound
I am returning to my roots or starting anew


There's no one around
I am alone and seeking solitude


Such a nice place to be
I find comfort in this peaceful setting


Got my bottle of wine and I think of you a thousand times
I am reminiscing about you while enjoying a drink


Think I'll stay here under the trees
I want to linger in this natural environment


Another morning in bed. Another morning somewhere
Every day feels the same, whether I'm at home or elsewhere


Oh how lovely this life could be
I dream of a more fulfilling existence


Where’d you go my love? Where’d you go? Where’d you go my love
I am yearning for your presence and wondering where you are


So I've come back home to start a flame, but I get caught up in these ways again
I returned home with hope, but old habits hold me back


And those days I’m here, it feels the same
Despite being back, nothing has changed


But it took some time to realise
It took a while for me to understand


That I'm still finding sadness in these eyes
I am still struggling with sadness in my own reflection


And I miss the way I used to be
I long for the person I used to be


What the hell am I doing here
I question my purpose or decisions


It's the same shit over again.
I feel stuck in a repetitive cycle


Over and over again
Repeating the same patterns


What the hell am I doing here
I am lost and confused about my current situation


It’s the same shit over again
I can't seem to break free from this monotony


What the hell am I doing here
I am questioning my choices and circumstances
