To Where You Are
Josh Groban Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memory's so clear
Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be

That you are my forever love
And you are watching over me
From up above
Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for a while to know you're there
A breath aways not far to where you are

Lie gently sleeping
Here inside my dream
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen
As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me
Everyday

Cause you are my forever love
Watching me from up above
And I believe that angels breathe
And that love will live on
And never leave
Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for a while to know you're there
A breath aways not far to where you are





I know you're there
A breath aways not far to where you are

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Josh Groban's song "To Where You Are" talk about the deep and lasting connection between two people, even after one has passed away. The singer wonders if his loved one is still here, feeling their memory all around him. The idea of being inspired by someone even in their absence is a powerful one, and the lyrics suggest that this person will always be a part of the singer's life. The chorus speaks of the loved one being a forever love, watching over the singer from up above, and the singer wishing to be taken to where he is beyond the distant stars.


The second verse delves deeper into the idea of faith and belief in something beyond what we can see. The loved one's presence is felt in the singer's dreams, and the singer believes that even though the loved one cannot be seen, they are only a heartbeat away. The lyrics express deep gratitude for everything that the loved one gave, and the idea that love never truly leaves us.


In essence, "To Where You Are" is a sweet and hopeful song about finding comfort in the memories of someone who has passed away. It's a reminder that even though that person may no longer be physically present, their spirit and love can still be felt in the world around us.

Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream?
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen

As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me
Every day

'Cause you are my
Forever love
Watching me
From up above

And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on
And never leave
Fly me up to where you are

My wife and I were together for over 50 years (4 years dating, 46 years married). She made her journey to Heaven on September 18th. During her last day I placed our Alexa on her hospice bed next to her pillow and had it play Josh Groban songs. To Where You Are was one of her favorites, but she loved Josh's voice and his music. I used "To Where You Are" as the song for a music video at her funeral mass. Not a dry eye in the house. I miss her so much. I talked to her every day and believe that she is happy and healthy in Heaven and I will join her some day. She was my wife, my best friend and the best decision I ever made was asking her to marry me.

I am so sorry for the loss of your wife. My husband was killed in Vietnam, and I love to listen to this song even though it makes me cry.

@x0539p

I am so very sorry for your loss. I can feel the love you have for her from your words. Brings a tear to my eye. My husband has been very sick for the last 4 years and I am not sure how much time he has. We saw Josh in concert and what am amazing performance it was. Love this song and Josh.
