Where You Are Lyrics by Jonathan Terrell

Roughs

2024

[Verse 1]
I saw her through my rangefinder
Moving like a sidewinder
I pulled focus to find the frame
She whipped around and said what's your name and
Why you trying to take a picture of me?
Can't a girl get some privacy?
I held my camera, discombobulated
All I could say was I was captivated
[Chorus]
I wanna know what you know
I wanna go where you go
You hold the secrets of a fallen star
I wanna be where you are
Where you are
[Verse 2]
She said her name was Esperanza
Her family moved here from the valley
I got a cousin down in Harlingen
We used to kick around McAllen
But, name is Luke, I kinda stuttered
Skinny white boy from the suburbs
I shoot this camera when I'm feeling alone
My mama's always working and my daddy's never home
[Verse 3]
Tell me, Esperanza, what's your favorite song?
Is it something that really goes off?
Me? I'm into country, a little Radiohead
She rolled her eyes, said genres are dead
I guess unless you're trying to fuck with the Queen
You know my girl, yeah, you know who I mean
Aye, Selena, God rest her soul
I just love Amor Prohibido
[Chorus]
I wanna know what you know
I wanna go where you go
You hold the secrets of a fallen star
I wanna be where you are
Where you are
[Verse 4]
Something changed in the conversation
I felt calm with a cool elation
Like I had met her somewhere before
And now fate was knocking at my door
She wrote her number on the back of my hand
I felt it burn like a tattoo can
Black hair blowing as she crossed the street
She hollered back, "Flaco, nice to meet you"
[Chorus]
I wanna know what you know
I wanna go where you go
You hold the secrets of a fallen star
I wanna be where you are
Where you are
[Bridge]
Sounds a simple as boy meets girl
Til you find the one you'd burn the world for
Grow up fast in the flick of a spark
Hold out your finger, electricity arcs
Like a stoplight flashing in a town this small
Four left turns and you've seen it all
Through the shadow of the water tower
Nervous fistful of roadside flowers
Tell me, Esperanza, won't you meet me after school?
Black hair braided and your brown skin cool
Leaned back 'cross the hood of my car
I wanna be where you are
Where you are
[Chorus]
I wanna know what you know
I wanna go where you go
You hold the secrets of a fallen star
I wanna be where you are
Where you are
[Outro]
Where you are
