[Verse 1] I woke up late, head spinning like the rain Phone dead on the floor, your laugh still in my brain Room so cold, I pulled the covers tight Then your name came through the dark like a porch light Lost myself on a hundred dark roads But I swear your memory knows where I go Every wrong turn, every busted plan Still finds my hand [Chorus] I wanna be wherever you are Singing off-key under tired old stars If the whole world breaks, let me break there too 'Cause every damn road circles back to you [Verse 2] Pockets empty, and my boots got mud Ain't much left but a little hard luck I chased a shadow down a backroad bend Ended up right where I began again You got a way of pulling me through Like a strong tide under a sky gone blue When the whole wide world goes sharp and mean You’re the soft place in between [Chorus] I wanna be wherever you are Singing off-key under tired old stars If the whole world breaks, let me break there too 'Cause every damn road circles back to you [Verse 3] Took the long way past the river gate Watched the moon hang low and wait The truck kept rolling, but I knew somehow I was coming home to you right now No map ever held the truth It was always written in me and you Every busted mile, every scar I wear Tells me you’re already there [Chorus] I wanna be wherever you are Singing off-key under tired old stars If the whole world breaks, let me break there too 'Cause every damn road circles back to you [Verse 4] Let the engine cough, let the tires run thin I’ll keep circling till I find you again No ghost town, no storm, no hard goodbye Could turn me loose if I tried When the dark falls out and the morning comes I’ll be right there when you need me, love Lost for a while, but I know the truth Every road leads back to you [Bridge] Let the engine stall, let the tires wear down There ain't no ghost in this ghost town Could pull me off the track we're on 'Til the dark gives way to the dawn [Final Chorus] I wanna be wherever you are Singing off-key under tired old stars If the whole world breaks, let me break there too 'Cause every damn road circles back to you I wanna be wherever you are Yeah, every damn road circles back to you
