[Intro — guitar hook, soft layered vocals]
Oh, wherever you are
Wherever you are
[Verse 1]
You left your jacket hanging by the door
Said you’d only stay a little more
Now the windows glow with morning blue
And I’m still finding ways to talk to you
There’s a taxi waiting down the street
You draw a little circle on my sleeve
Then you smile and put your phone away
I never thought you’d be the one to stay
[Pre-Chorus]
We don’t have to call it anything
Let the record turn, let the night sink in
When you reach for me across the dark
I know where to start
[Chorus]
Take me where you are
Where you are, where you are
We can let the city disappear
I’ve got everything I need right here
Take me where you are
Where you are, where you are
When the morning pulls the night apart
Leave a little of your light here in my heart
[Post-Chorus — layered call and response]
Ay-ya, stay a little longer
Ay-ya, till the daylight comes
Ay-ya, stay a little longer
Where you are is where I wanna go
[Verse 2]
We find a place that’s opening at six
You steal a little coffee with a kiss
People hurry past us in the rain
You say my name, it sounds a different way
And I’ve been good at leaving things unsaid
Keeping every feeling in my head
But you’re dancing while we wait to cross
And for a moment all of that is lost
[Pre-Chorus]
We don’t have to call it anything
Let the record turn, let the night sink in
When you reach for me across the dark
I know where to start
[Chorus]
Take me where you are
Where you are, where you are
We can let the city disappear
I’ve got everything I need right here
Take me where you are
Where you are, where you are
When the morning pulls the night apart
Leave a little of your light here in my heart
[Instrumental break — guitar melody, rolling percussion]
[Bridge — intimate vocal, stripped back]
I used to watch the clock
Now I let it run
Your shoes beside my shoes
Two shadows in the sun
You turn and hold your hand out
Like it’s easy, like it’s true
And I take one step closer
That’s all I have to do
[Final Chorus — soaring harmonies, full groove]
Take me where you are
Where you are, where you are
We can let the city disappear
I’ve got everything I need right here
Take me where you are
Where you are, where you are
When the morning pulls the night apart
Leave a little of your light here in my heart
[Outro — guitar hook, fading harmonies]
Ay-ya, stay a little longer
Ay-ya, till the daylight comes
Where you are
Is where I wanna go
