Right Where I Belong
Windy Wagner Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes when night has come
The river sings a song
In my dreams, it seems to lead me
Right where I belong

Wondering everywhere
Each way I turn is wrong
How I'm wishing

I could be there
Right where I belong

Smiles that have warmed me
Arms that have held me
Are all a part of who I am

It's never easy leaving your friends behind
Missing them
Loving them

Someplace was meant for me
And that's what keeps me strong

Somehow knowing I'll be going
Right where I belong

Right where I

Home where I belong

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Windy Wagner's song "Right Where I Belong" are about the search for a sense of belonging and the feeling of being lost in life. The singer describes the feeling of being lost and unsure of where to go, but then finds solace in the river's song that leads her back to where she belongs - home. The lyrics suggest that while life can be a journey full of uncertainty and confusion, the singer ultimately knows where she belongs and what will keep her strong - the place where she feels at home.

The singer's longing for a sense of belonging is also reflected in the lines "Smiles that have warmed me, arms that have held me, are all a part of who I am." The singer acknowledges that the people who have loved and supported her over the years have shaped her into the person she is today. However, despite the love and support of those around her, she is still searching for a place where she feels she truly belongs.

The song is a poignant reminder of the importance of home and the sense of belonging that it brings. It speaks to the universal desire to find a place where one feels accepted and loved. The song's simple melody and heartfelt lyrics evoke a strong emotional response and leave the listener feeling uplifted and hopeful.

Sometimes when night has come
At times when the night arrives

The river sings a song
The river creates a melody

In my dreams, it seems to lead me
In my dream, it appears to guide me

Right where I belong
To the exact place where I truly belong

Wondering everywhere
Moving around aimlessly

Each way I turn is wrong
Every direction I take feels incorrect

How I'm wishing
I long and yearn

I could be there
To be present in that place

Right where I belong
That particular place that suits me

Smiles that have warmed me
Happy expressions that have comforted me

Arms that have held me
Embraces that have supported me

Are all a part of who I am
They are all components of my character

It's never easy leaving your friends behind
Parting ways with one's friends is always challenging

Missing them
Feeling their absence

Loving them
Having affection towards them

Someplace was meant for me
A destination was destined for me

And that's what keeps me strong
That idea keeps me resilient

Somehow knowing I'll be going
Having a sense that I will depart

Right where I belong
At the place that suits me

Right where I
Precisely where I should be

Home where I belong
Where I have a sense of belonging - my home

This is so emotional. I know this wasn't in any scene of JB2 but this song feels like if Shanti is singing this to Mowgli, tearfully saying goodbye. Because even though she loves Mowgli, she can't live in the jungle with him and his friends. Her place was in the man village with her family. But she promised him that she will always be with him at heart.

I hope this can be in the sequel of the 2016 Jungle Book

Actually, if you listen carefully, this song is part of the instrumental score between scenes in The Jungle Book 2 movie

This movie was proven to be a continuum of the entire story of The Jungle Book thanks to its shadow puppetry prologue doing the events of the classic. And it also proved that both movies are indeed, set in India where the story was created by Rudyard Kipling. India and England had relatives of one another all because of Rudyard and the invasion. Explains why some of The Jungle Book characters have an Indian accent and some of the other ones have an English accent.

Since The Jungle Book was released in 1967, it was the last of the movies with Walt Disney's personal touch. Also in 1967, there came The Reluctant Astronaut, The Happiest Millionaire, the inventing of the Hot Wheels cars, the Nehru Jackets from the Groovy Formal Collection and the birth of Jamie Foxx who played Max Dillon/Electro and voiced Joe Gardner.

Since Kaa was given an advice to report Mowgli to Shere Khan by the tiger himself if he ever happened upon him, he almost decided to let the boy sleep in the tree with his tail wrapped around him for days until the snake perished of immense hunger and since Kaa charmed Shanti and almost ate her which made him swallow a rock and it prevented him from going into anymore future trees, he almost felt like marrying her.

Mowgli, Shanti and Ranjan are Indian Disney characters, including Baljeet Tjinder, Mishti Patel, Mira, Prince Neel and Ishani.

@dillonjohnson5530

I am flabbergasted for Ranjan to be Mowgli's stepbrother like the title characters of Disney's Phineas and Ferb to both be stepbrothers. Cinderella didn't like having Drizella and Anastasia as her newest first-ever stepsisters until the second film when she taught Anastasia to believe in kindness, magic and fairytales as well as a happily ever after.

The vulture quartet who helped Mowgli be happy again as well as fend off Shere Khan, they cameoed in the Paul Rudish Mickey Mouse cartoon, Mumbai Madness, which also proved that both animated The Jungle Book movies are truly set in India.

Also, the 1960's which was the releases of One Hundred and One Dalmatians, The Sword in the Stone, Mary Poppins (Saving Mr. Banks retells the story of its creation and release), The Jungle Book, The Reluctant Astronaut and The Happiest Millionaire, it was also the establishment of The Pathway School, my parents' birth and childhood, Red Robin's debut, the New York World's Fair's starring (it cameoed in Tomorrowland with a young Frank Walker and his jetpack following Athena (Raffey Cassidy) through It's A Small World into Tomorrowland), the launch of the Shinkansen; Japan's bullet train system, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous I Have A Dream speech, the death of Walt Disney, the battle at sea, the Hot Wheels cars and the launch of both How the Grinch Stole Christmas and the Scooby-Doo franchise.

Before, after and along with all that, Jennis will sleep and snore with Maya's snake form's tail wrapped around her like Mowgli by Kaa, Quota will sleep in the fern with four leaves covering her body, also like Mowgli, Scarecrow Farmer Zombie Skeleton will bite Jennis's rear like Shere Khan did Baloo, Zilaan will dance like Baloo did in the second movie while singing The Bare Necessities like he did, only by parody and different lyrics and Casey junior and Putt-Putt will thunder through the jungle, repairing the gong that fell, thrabbing away the rock that was stuck in Kaa, now out of his body after the snake died; his hypnosis which was the only magic added to the world of The Jungle Book was history and entering the multi-river lane from the end of The Jungle Book 2.

My characters will be captivated in India on the Taj Mahal; Douglas will explain to them that he spent his entire life doing something completely wrong while helping them elude dangerous color light beams formed by the shine. Then a funeral will start in front of the Taj Mahal as Quadruphus and Launchtme prepare to aim the premium content tank at the crowd to replace their blood with slime. The shot will go off in another direction and they will devise a backup plan before heading off and the characters will free themselves and the crowd along with two chipmunks will recognize Jennis as their favorite belly dancer and Douglas will heal them all with the water strip in front of the Taj Mahal and they will all dance to American Authors: Best Day of my Life as they traverse the cities around India and enter the jungle where the world of The Jungle Book movies take place and are; they will witness the temple of King Louie, the Peace Rock, the Gong Ring, the Majestic Waterfall, the hollow of Mowgli's wolf family and the Man Village. As they recall the events of The Jungle Book stories, Zilaan will arrive and describe the history of The Jungle Book in the style of the Best Original Song, The Bare Necessities. Then they will trot through a dry marsh and witness with a pair of marine iguanas, the emaciated body of Kaa the Snake. Afterwards, they will approach an estuary with a beach and two docks, two classic ferries will be shown departing with passengers and Stefano invites everybody on his Riva Runabout Speedboat and they and Shindus and Vanatha hauling Diantholeerum will escape India, passing the ferries in the process all the way to America with Oliver's Escape Theme playing.

Daryn Perras it's hard to keep in touch with people who you haven't seen since you were little when there wasn't as widespread of communication and little kids were lucky if they were allowed on their parents computer once a day and even then had extreme limits as to what they could do. I have moved 12 different times most of them being when I was too young to be able to keep in touch with old friends I know things are different now then they were when I was little but a change in technology now doesn't mean that people from ten years ago are randomly going to show up so that we can exchange numbers

@peterhanson3472

@@marriahwarner3969too true. When I got Facebook back in 2009, so many people I grew up with had no qualms about acting like I was some sort of phase in the late 90s and the early 2000s, so they refused friendship with me. So many people I once called my friend have cut me off over stuff I wasn't involved in, have changed for the worst, or revealed themselves to be user wolves in sheep's clothing; most at this happened after me and my graduating class had just graduated high school. I am in touch with only a few people I grew up with at this point. Kind of a reason why I would rather be a lone wolf and I refused to date any women who tried flirting and chatting with me in my college days.

Kind of similar to what Jessie said in Toy Story 2 about how you never forget certain people, but they forget about you.

Stay strong in this crazy ass world we live in.
