Where You Want To Be

A song for anyone who has ever tried to keep a memory alive inside a melody. It's about the way a guitar can be a vessel for love and loss, sending notes out like messages in a bottle, and finding a fragile, beautiful home for someone in the space between the strings.

Inside This Song

I have dreamed
.....a million dreams
and I've seen you in every one.
You are my present
.....and my life to come
I've never thought about our future
.....and not seen you in it.
As for the present
you are the only present
that I've ever wanted to unwrap.
Oh! Rest your head on my lap.
.....Feel especially gifted.
I have lifted you above the crowd.
I am so very proud
you agreed to taking me on.
I am so very proud
you said yes to being my lover.

I have dreamed

that I've ever wanted to unwrap.
Oh! Rest your head on my lap.
.....Feel especially gifted.
I have lifted you above the crowd.
I am so very proud
you agreed to taking me on.
I am so very proud
you said yes to being my lover.

(chorus)
Things don't just fall into place.
There's a power in the Universe
which manipulates
.....the clay of all our fates.
There's a slot for us
and there are keys.
.....There's the age old mystery
of why we knew who we are.
Promises were made,
.....plans were laid,
..........many many moons ago.
And here we both are
at the start of our big adventure.
Let's take a deep breath
and count our lucky stars.
One.
.....One million.
..........One billion and one.

Things don't just fall into place.
There's a power in the Universe
which manipulates
.....the clay of all our fates.
There's a slot for us
and there are keys.
.....There's the age old mystery
of why we knew who we are.
Promises were made,
.....plans were laid,
..........many many moons ago.
And here we both are
at the start of our big adventure.
Let's take a deep breath
and count our lucky stars.
One.
.....One million.
..........One billion and one.
