Where Are You Now

(Where Are You Now, from Fearless Moral Inventory, words and music by Juliet A. Wright, copyright 2010, all rights reserved)  Where Are You Now

Standing at the waters edge

Wrapped in your arms

Warm and safe

I looked at you and said

I’m still cold so don’t let go,

Stay with me awhile

I really just wanted to keep you close

Remembering makes me smile

Where are you now?

Wherever it is can you hear me?

Please come back I need you now

To show me how it’s supposed to be

Summertime

And caught in the rain.

We hid together ‘neath an old table

Laughing and soaked to the skin

Times were few and far between

When I knew you loved me.

Gone were rages

Battles and blues

You were happy just to be

So tell me

Where are you now?

Wherever it is can you hear me?

Please come back I need you now

To show me how it’s supposed to be

I feel like you’ve done me wrong

Your will to win was strong

One false move

And then your kingdom came crashing down

The walls went up

And you were gone.

Dead were the days of you and me

I tried and tried to bring you back

It just wasn’t meant to be

All those days and nights I cried

I just didn’t understand

You were there and gone as quick

God must’ve had a plan.

So tell me,

Where are you now?

Wherever it is can you hear me?

Please come back I need you now

To show me how it’s supposed to be

Where are you now?

Wherever it is are you watching?

Did I do it right somehow

Is it all the way it’s supposed to be?

Where are you now?

Wherever it is are you happy?

Is everything making sense

Is it all the way it’s supposed to be?
