Mayday Parade - Where You Are Lyrics






The commander is calling home to tell the news
It isn't good, I am afraid to say
Today's the day you have been dreading for so many years
It's almost like you have been saving up the tears
Remembering the words
You to me, are encased in nothing but beauty and gracious love

You'll always be my one good reason to keep on moving 'til I'm in your arms

My favorite place is wherever you are
But I don't know where you are

Now this ugly point of view keeps creeping up to say
It's all his fault you feel this way
But that won't help and it's not right to think that anyway
Well, goddamn, why did this have to happen anyway?
And why did you have to leave across the sea
Where I can't reach you and hold you, protect you the way I need

You'll always be my one good reason to keep on moving 'til I'm in your arms
My favorite place is wherever you are, but I don't know where you are
My favorite place is wherever you are, but I don't know where you are

I don't know where you are
I don't know where you are

Now this crack beneath the ocean floor, it calls its way out to me
When I sleep, I don't know why
But it suggests I should come find it
When I wake I don't know where I am
I fumble all around into the dark
And in an awful moment I realize I've lost you and I'm lost

I keep thinking that you're hiding somewhere only I can see
But I wake to find you nowhere and I'm tearing at my sheets
I keep thinking that you're hiding somewhere only I can see
But I wake to find you nowhere and I'm tearing at my sheets

I don't know where you are
I don't know where you are

    My favorite place is wherever you are, but I don't know where you are.

  8. J.... E....

    im still here and still love this song soooo much. It made me the better/smarter man i am today

  9. C.... ....

    The way I see this song is like the point of view of somebody that lost a loved one over seas and they’re trying to cope with the loss but it’s a mix of emotions like
    Anger and sadness.

  10. G.... H....

    "My favorite place is wherever you are but I don't know where you are." This reminds me of my grandma. I miss her so much. 😭 Thank you for this wonderful song, Mayday Parade. I love you so much. Thank you for your music. 💖

  21. T.... W....

    this one hurts the worst BY FAR

  22. b.... m....

    People are relating this to their exes,but to me,this song is making me relate to my cousin I lost last year .."my favorite place is where you are but I don't know where you are" I miss you b.

  23. x.... R....

    This is the first Mayday Parade song I've heard a curse word in

  24. A.... F....

    MAYDAY PARADE IS AN EMOTION

  25. D.... i....

    I've found this song in the perfect moment. I was really sad cause my best friends are leaving to other cities for university and damn they've just moved bt i cant help missing them 💔 and this song remembers me how much I miss and I will miss them😭
    I'm having this song becoming my life soundtrack 💫

  26. R.... M....

    this is a masterpiece

  27. U.... �....

    When i was refused by my crush i was really broken.. After 13 days this song is released and recommended to me by YouTube.I am so happy i decided to take a look.Cause that song really helped me to move on from that bad mood... And i decided to listen more of the songs from Mayday Parade and find my self more songs to listen and i am like addicted to them now.Their way of singing just giving me chill's.

  28. A.... P....

    Planning on seeing them in October!!!!

  29. A.... M....

    Welcome Back, Mayday Parade! That's all! <3

  30. L.... J....

    Terrible things part 2 😭😭

  31. A.... C....

    Is it only me or does anyone else think that this song could be about someone who died from suicide??? Because you're looking for the and can't find them, you can't reach them and protect them, the part that says " it's his fault to feel this way", also the crack in the ocean floor might be the suicidal thoughts because the one you loved the most died and you can't have them back and you really want to find them so dying's the only way... I don't know, it's just a thought...

  32. R.... ....

    I danced to "Piece of Your Heart" at my wedding. I hope to never cry to this song if my husband is ever deployed.

  33. J.... M....

    Great album!! I love them so mucchhh ♥

    Miss you Matt 💜
    Will always love you.
    I remember the first time you played a song from thid band. We were sitting in your car and you were singing along.
    Such a sweet memory with you that I will never forget and it is burned into my heart.
    And Why did this even have to happen?
    Why did you have to leave?
    I think you're hiding somewhere only I can see but I wake to find you nowhere and Im tearing at my sheets.
    I don't know where you are
    but I know you are inside my heart and in my dreams.
    Please stay there 💜💜💜💜
