Where Are We?
by AJ MacDonald
Lyrics
VERSE 1
Wish I knew,
Someone like you,
I wonder who,
I might've been.
You've opened doors,
New inspiration to explore,
As our imaginations soar,
With our hearts a-flutter.
Had I known,
What kind of seeds could be sown,
Another life I could have grown,
With a mind like yours to light the way.
CHORUS 1
Where are we, where are we?
You brought out the best in me.
Where are we, where are we?
Reframed in a way I hadn't seen.
Where are we, where are we?
I never expected to feel this way.
Where are we, where are we?
As you lean closer in and say...
With a few whispered words,
Showed me, that I deserve.
VERSE 2
You said you felt safe,
In my embrace.
I felt the same.
You pushed me away.
Around you I feel,
Like I could heal.
What part was real?
Were we just passing the time?
You showed me the light,
Now you're fading from sight,
Was I not right,
For what you need?
It seemed so easy,
We talked so freely,
Maybe it was just me....
Did it get complicated somehow?
CHORUS 2
Where are we, where are we?
You told me you needed space,
Where are we, where are we?
So we slowed things down and changed our pace.
Where are we, where are we?
You don't owe me an explanation,
Where are we, where are we?
But are we not worth a conversation?
Does the absence attest for itself?
Or is there something else?
Are you just taking care of yourself?
Why is it so hard to say?
VERSE 3
Your silence speaks,
Through empty weeks,
The void it seeks,
To fill my mind.
The echoes ring,
Of what you'd bring,
That missing thing,
I can't replace.
Been a calendar or two,
Since I heard from you,
What can I do?
Messages unseen...
I hope you don't mind,
That I still find,
You crossing mine.
Do you ever think of me?
BRIDGE 1
How do you remember...
Us, ...me?
Who was I...
...To you?
CHORUS 3
Where are we, where are we?
If friendship's what you want from me,
Tell me please, would ya tell me please?
Show me what that's meant to be.
Where are we, where are we?
Life gets busy & priorities change,
Help me see, help me see,
But does this have to leave us estranged?
I've got no way to gauge how you feel,
I can handle any truth you reveal...
BRIDGE 2
I'm left here to wonder...
CHORUS 4
Where are we, where are we?
I'm not trying to change your heart.
Talk to me, you can talk to me,
Just trying to understand my part.
Where are we, where are we?
I thought we'd have more time to spend.
Could there be, could there be,
Any room for a friend?
I wish you felt you could tell me why,
'Cause this silence stings more than goodbye.
OUTRO
For every spark you drew,
For every part of me that grew,
You have my gratitude,
For the time we shared.
If ever you change your mind,
& happen to feel inclined,
You know how to find...
...me.
I just-
end
