I Wanna Be Where You Are (single)

This family farm is where I was raised
But it ain’t the same these days
Since you’ve gone
It don’t feel like home
The sun don’t set like it used
And that old whippoorwill sure sounds blue
He misses you
But not like I do


I wanna be where you are

I wanna see what you see

I wanna hold you close

Whisper your name

And breathe the air you breathe

I wanna walk by your side

Not just be in your heart

If you can’t be where I am

I wanna be where you are



The city life is killing me

Sure ain’t what I thought it be

The lights are bright

But I miss Virginia nights

The endless fields of old concrete

Got more people than I’ve ever seen

Been gone too long

I just wanna go home



I wanna be where you are

I wanna see what you see

I wanna hold you close

Whisper your name

And breathe the air you breathe

I wanna walk by your side

Not just be in your heart

If you can’t be where I am

I wanna be where you are



I wanna be where you are

I wanna see what you see

I wanna hold you close

Whisper your name

And breathe the air you breathe

I wanna walk by your side

Not just be in your heart

If you can’t be where I am

I wanna be where you are
