lyrics

Where were you

Waking up - watch myself responding
Watching for - everything - awake and curious
Waking up, underwater - light filters thru the waves
Waking up, under my own spell - aware but I can’t break it

Where were you, when i had to - carry the piano across the river during a typhoon - where were you when i was sick, the cat was sick too, and all the other nightmares also came true On the weekend - when all my thoughts turned blue - where the hell were you

Waking up, by your side, slip away a little more each day
Waking up - see you go - reaching out, but moving slow
Waking up, just a dream, help me breathe
Waking up under my own spell - aware but i can’t break it

Where were you when i had to drink alone -
just to sleep cos they turned off the heat and the roof kept leakin -
I lost my phone, i lost my way - lost my keys, an awful day
On the weekend - when all my thoughts turned blue (inst)

What we are is what we see and what we read - so we choose
Where we go is what we grieve and what we need - do we open or do we close
From here, where we go - up to us if we want to know
From here, where we go - is what we grieve and what we need,
can you see me anymore, can you see me anymore
