Where I Want Us to Be
From Despair to Grace: A Journey to Heavenly Love
Lyrics
When I say we've been through tough times
Reflecting on challenging times in the past
What I really mean is I drug you along for mine
Acknowledging that personal struggles affected the partner
For many years with me you suffered
Expressing a sense of shared suffering over many years
I think your past made you feel that's all you deserved
Suggesting the partner's past led to feelings of undeserving
I was bright eyed and bushy tailed
Describing a youthful and optimistic state of mind
Driving down a paved road straight to hell
Metaphorically traveling a destructive path
And I was taking you there with me
Acknowledging the negative impact on the partner
I was letting my past and yours become our story
Mixing personal histories into a shared narrative
But that was before the moment that I believed
Reflecting on a transformative moment of belief
That the saving Grace of God could change everything
Believing in the transformative power of God's grace
And put us on the road to Heaven
Expressing a desire for a positive future together
And that's where I want us to be
Emphasizing the aspiration for a heavenly relationship
That's where I want us to be
Reiterating the desire for a positive and divine connection
I was suppose to lead you
Acknowledging a leadership role in the relationship
And looking back I guess I was
Realizing the past leadership led to a meaningless path
But it was down a road to nowhere
Grateful for a realization that prompted positive change
And I thank the Lord each day for finally waking me up
Expressing gratitude for waking up to a better path
I was bright eyed and bushy tailed
Repeating the earlier description of a destructive journey
Driving down a paved road straight to hell
Recalling the negative impact on the partner
And I was taking you there with me
Continuing the theme of intertwining past narratives
I was letting my past and yours become our story
Reiterating the shift in perspective due to belief
But that was before the moment that I believed
Reflecting on the transformative power of faith
That the saving Grace of God could change everything
Desiring a shared journey towards a heavenly future
And put us on the road to Heaven
Reiterating the aspiration for a positive and divine connection
And that's where I want us to be
Expressing a continued desire for a heavenly relationship
That's where I want us to be
Reiterating the ongoing aspiration for a positive connection
I had to write this in a song
Explaining the need to express these sentiments in a song
Girl you already know
Acknowledging that the partner is already aware of changes
Cuz you've seen the changes in me
Highlighting positive personal growth observed by the partner
I want to see how far we can go
Expressing a desire to explore the potential of the relationship
I was bright eyed and bushy tailed
Repeating the earlier description of a destructive journey
I was driving down a paved road straight to hell
Reiterating the acknowledgment of negative impact
And I was taking you there with me
Continuing the narrative until the transformative moment
Until the moment that I believed
Emphasizing the importance of the moment of belief
The saving Grace of God could change everything
Belief in the power of God's grace to bring positive change
And put us on that road to Heaven
Expressing a desire for a heavenly path together
Put us on the road to Heaven
Reiterating the aspiration for a divine and positive connection
And that's where I want us to be
Desiring a shared journey towards a heavenly future
That's where I want us to be
Reiterating the ongoing aspiration for a positive connection
