WHERE YOU WANT TO BE
Darren Hayes / Rick Nowels

Hey there stranger
Do you remember?
You were a part of my life
Early December
Think I remember
Sentiment cuts like a knife
The seasons are changing
Life's rearranging, full of good times,
Would-have-been's, and how times goes
And though I don't even know
How to fill in the spaces
And the love you've erased in my life

CHORUS
Are you where you wanted to be?
Did you get there easily?
Did I make you sacrifice?
Did you make a sharp left
When you should have turned right?
Are you where you wanted to be?
Did you sell off all of your gold?
Did you trade it in?
Dud you wait for love
Or settle for somebody to hold?

And barely symphonic, but strangely ironic
Moments contained in one glance
Oh how I adored you, but now I'm ignored by you
Nowhere a tint of romance
And now it's vaguely familiar
I think I remember sharing every single intimacy
It doesn't seem so strange to me that we barely entertained
Even the politest of phrases
But sometimes at night
I conjure you up in my mind

CHROUS

While I was busy perfecting the art
Of deflecting compliments
I took it too far
And I let her rip one right through my heart
Of battle stations we're building
You and I just grew apart
We grew apart
While I decided to make everyone else happy
I just put aside my foolish pride
I guess I denied my own desire
I was too busy pleasing every please
I forgot how to breathe
Or question anything
Or ask why?
Am I?

CHORUS (except replace 'you' with 'I')

I'd settle for somebody to hold now
You know that I've been up and I've been down
I've been picked up and spun around
I'd do it all again
If I could just have somebody to hold now
I just need somebody to hold me now
Could somebody hold me now?
I just want somebody to hold me now
I'd do it all again
