Song Meaning
The song opens with a claim that presence is felt rather than merely imagined — "not just in my head" — and that this presence walks alongside the singer in every step. When sight fails, the singer substitutes a mental picture, describing it as a preview of what lies ahead, a forward-leaning image that keeps longing pointed toward the future rather than backward. The chorus admits uncertainty about where that future actually goes, then pivots hard: the destination matters less than the company. The hyperbole is deliberately extravagant — draining oceans, crossing from Earth to Heaven — all to buy a single moment in that presence. A later verse escalates the surrender: giving up everything, calling the beloved everything the singer is and needs. The bridge turns vulnerable, asking that the grip not loosen because the world would tumble without it, and closes with the odd, striking image of dusting off a heart "in your crown." The song reads as devotional longing — a love song aimed upward, where proximity itself is the reward and geography is negotiable.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I can feel you
It's not just in my head
It's the real you
You're in my every step
I carry you with me
I carry you with me always
When I can't see you
I picture you instead
It's like a preview
Of what's coming up ahead
I carry you with me
I carry you with me always
Don't know exactly where our future goes
I just wanna be, wanna be, where you are
I just wanna be, wanna be, where you are
I would drain the oceans just to have a moment
Where you are, where you are, are
I would give up everything I have
All for you, love
You're everything I am
And everything I need
Everything I need, always
Don't know exactly where our future goes
Just want that side of you that no one knows
I just wanna be, wanna be, where you are
I just wanna be, wanna be, where you are
I would drain the oceans just to have a moment
Where you are, where you are, are
I just wanna be, wanna be, where you are
I just wanna be, wanna be, where you are
From the Earth to Heaven I just need a second
Where you are, where you are, are
Don't loosen your grip on me
Cause then my world would start tumbling down, down, down
Come stay and never leave
I'm dusting off my heart in your crown, crown, crown
I just wanna be, wanna be, where you are
I just wanna be, wanna be, where you are
I would drain the oceans just to have a moment
Where you are, where you are, are
I just wanna be, wanna be, where you are
I just wanna be, wanna be, where you are
From the Earth to Heaven I just need a second
Where you are, where you are, are
