Where You're Coming From Lyrics

I still remember what it felt like

To sit out on your porch during a slow night

To stare out at the street and watch them pass by

Like we're the only ones without some place to go

I didn't kiss you till it felt right

But I knew what holding you would feel like

I wasn't hung up on the hard times

I fell in love before I saw you fly

Just promise me you'll read this letter

And tell me that your life got better

They see the place you're headed towards

But I've been where you're coming from

I knew you when the light was distant

The tunnel was the place we kissed in

They see the place you're headed towards

But I've been where you're coming from

Yeah, I've been where you're coming from

I still remember you with eyes wide

When you told me how you'd never quite been loved right

That life would never beat you in a fair fight

Just circumstance had never sent a fair foe

So, I didn't kiss you on that first night

But dear I held you and I held tight

I know the wings you've grown are some sight

But I fell in love before I saw you fly

Just promise me you'll read this letter

And tell me that your life got better

They see the place you're headed towards

But I've been where you're coming from

I knew you when the light was distant

The tunnel was the place we kissed in

They see the place you're headed towards

But I've been where you're coming from

Yeah, I've been where you're coming from

When the times right, on a slow night

I'll be there then

When you fly high, but don't land right

I'll be there then

Just promise me you'll read this letter

And tell me that your life got better

They see the place you're headed towards

But I've been where you're coming from

I knew you when the light was distant

The tunnel was the place we kissed in

They see the place you're headed towards

But I've been where you're coming from

Yeah, I've been where you're coming from
