Where Have You Been
Noah Cyrus & LP Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Whenever you sleep
I'm in your dreams
I'm standing at your front door, wondering where you've been?
I'm standing at your front door, where I've been
I've been before
I've been before
I'm standing at your front door, wondering where you've been?
I'm standing at your front door, where I've been
I've been before
I've been before
Where have you been?
Haven't seen you in a bit
Where did you sleep?
I've been, I've been the secrets you keep
'Til the night is through
The lyrics to Noah Cyrus and LP's song "Where Have You Been?" speak to the uncertainty and longing of love. The first line, "Whenever you sleep, I'm in your dreams," suggests that the singer is constantly thinking about and longing for the person they address. The repetition of the line "I'm standing at your front door, wondering where you've been?" further emphasizes the singer's desire for the other person's presence. They repeat the line several times, suggesting that this longing is ongoing and persistent.
The chorus of the song, "Where have you been? Haven't seen you in a bit. Where did you sleep? I've been, I've been the secrets you keep 'til the night is through," suggests that the singer is not only missing the person but also wants to know where they have been and what they have been doing. The line "I've been the secrets you keep 'til the night is through" suggests that the singer is aware that the other person is keeping things hidden or has secrets that they only reveal at night.

Yeah
Reaffirmation of previous statement or question
Whenever you sleep
During your rest or unconsciousness
I'm in your dreams
I exist within the images you visualize during nightly rest
I'm standing at your front door, wondering where you've been?
I am outside your main entrance, contemplating your whereabouts
Where I've been
I too have previously stood here
I've been before
I have visited this location in the past
Haven't seen you in a bit
It has been some time since our last encounter
Where did you sleep?
Where did you last rest or slumber?
I've been, I've been the secrets you keep
I am aware of the private matters you withhold from others
'Til the night is through
Until the period of darkness has ended
Where have you been?
What places or locations have you been to?

[Verse 1]
Honey, feels my worlds burnt down
I'm trying to put it out
I'm trying but don't know how
Honey, I'm drowning in all my doubt
I'm trying to start again
I try but I'm struggling
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, after all this time, got nothing to lose
Oh, after all this time, see nothing but you
[Chorus]
You might say I'm wasted on you
But when you break, I break for you too
Love can beat us black and blue
But darling, I'll take the punches for you
Punches for you
Punches for you
Love can beat us black and blue
But darling, I'll take the punches for you
[Verse 2]
Darling, our good intentions
Keep running in circles
I'm fading out like a ghost
Oh darling, you're making the same mistakes
But I'm trying to start again
I tried but I'm struggling
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, after all this time, got nothing to lose
Oh, after all this time, see nothing but you
[Chorus]
You might say I'm wasted on you
But when you break, I break for you too
Love can beat us black and blue
But darling, I'll take the punches for you
Punches for you
Punches for you
Love can beat us black and blue
But darling, I'll take the punches for you
[Bridge]
Darling, darling (darling)
Darling (darling, darling, darling)
Darling
Like a match faded in time
Like an old forgotten tomb
I know love has been unkind
For the two of us
[Chorus]
You might say that I've been bruised
But when you break, I'm breaking too
Love can beat us black and blue
But darling, I'll take the punches for you
Punches for you
Punches for you
Punches for you
Punches for you (punches for, punches for)
Punches for you
Punches for you

You can tell LP had a hand in creating this song in some way
Her sound is distinctive and you can hear it before she even sings. This song is amazing! This style also fits Noah very well.
