Nowhere Else That I'd Rather Be

from I Knew A Girl Once by Ray Zimmerman

/

lyrics

If our house was made of sand
And our shoes were carved from stone
And eventually the tide rose to our necks
Then I would sit beside you still because we never go alone
if we drown we drown together I’d suggest

If we walked through the woods
And lay together on the grass
And a fire caught ablaze and blocked the way
Then long after our bodies burn this love will rise up from the ash
Cos some things shine too brightly to ever fade

When the sun doesn’t rise
If all the sky stays dark
I'll build our home between the breaks in the debris
Holding my blistered hands maybe you’d understand that we’re never gonna be apart
There’s nowhere else that I would rather be

If the weight upon your back becomes a burden you can’t bear
If you have to rest here for a while
You need only set it down, I’ll run my fingers through your hair
For I would carry you a thousand miles

When the sun doesn’t rise
If all the sky stays dark
I’ll build our home between the breaks in the debris
Holding my blistered hands maybe you’d understand that we’re never gonna be apart
There’s nowhere else that I would rather be

We’re a long way from the ocean now
But if I hold you close I can hear somehow

If the winds would all stop blowing
Then I’m sure that I’d die knowing
That this fire In my heart burns in the third degree
I don’t need the world to grow
My homes anywhere you go
And there’s nowhere in it that I would rather be
