about
“Where You Are”, is a song written for herself, both an acknowledgement of the need to accept where one is in life, and of the need to take responsibility for personal growth.
lyrics

You think where you are
Is the chain that keeps you from the dream you seek
Can't blame it on anyone, it's me, myself and I
Don't know why, but I'll find the way to there
For so long you've been
Under the illusion everything you wanted
Would fall into perfect place, it's now or never
My dear please, take responsibility
Where you are (Where you are)
Where you wanna be (Ah, wanna be)
Where you are (Where you are)
No holding back from me (Holding back from me)
Where you are (Where you are)
Where you wanna be (Ah, wanna be)
Where you are (Where you are)
No holding back from me
Keep your eyes straight ahead
Looking back can only hurt you then, don't pretend
To blame it on consequence, it's now or never
My dear please, take responsibility
Where you are (Where you are)
Where you wanna be (Ah, wanna be)
Where you are (Where you are)
No holding back from me (Holding back from me)
Where you are (Where you are)
Where you wanna be (Ah, wanna be)
Where you are (Where you are)
No holding back from me (Holding back from me)
Where you are (Where you are, where you are)
Where you wanna be (Ah, wanna be)
Where you are (Where you wanna go)
No holding back from me (Holding back from me)
Where you are (Where you are, where you are)
Where you wanna be (Ah, wanna be)
Where you are (Where you wanna go)
No holding
No holding back now
Believe in what you say
Please understand that now
No matter what they say
No holding back now (Back now)
Believe in what you say (Back now)
Please understand that now (Back now)
No matter what they say (Back now)
No holding back now (No holding back now)
Believe in what you say (Believe in what you say)
Please understand that now (Back now)
No matter what they say (No matter what they say)
No holding back now (No holding back now)
Believe in what you say (Believe in what you say)
Please understand that now (Back now)
No matter what they say
