Where I Am

Lyrics

He said I get a dollar a day to watch all the cars
 Of the rich come down for the beach and the bars
 Their distracted faces always looking away
 But I'm OK I just watch the sea
 The rise and fall like it's inside of me
 And no two days the same
 I am where I am, I'm not so hard to find
 I do what I can with what they leave behind
 I'm with who I'm with, I speak with who is near
 Come back, I am here
 Into all the empty spaces leer a hundred thousand faces
 Scream a hundred million voices if you let them come
 But I just feel the breath of wind that dries the sweat upon my skin
 Slowly breathing out and breathing in
 And I am where I am, I'm not so hard to find
 I do what I can with what they leave behind
 I'm with who I'm with, I speak with who is near
 Come back, I am here
 And everybody wants to be somewhere else
 Everybody wants to be someone else
 It seems like everybody wants to be someone else
 Everybody wants to be somewhere else
 The wind blows the water, patterns racing across the bay
 And the sand slides through your
 fingers and it's all made from the same
 For what you touch well that's what
 makes you, is there beside you always
 There are people that I'll never know
 From places still I'll never go
 They play their dramas out from scene to scene
 But the insects crawl through the blades of grass
 The summer storms they slowly pass
 The colours change in the arcing of the sun
 And I am where I am, I'm not so hard to find
 I do what I can with what they leave behind
 I'm with who I'm with, I speak with who is near
 Come back, I am here
