I Wanna Be Where You Are

Jose Feliciano

Can it be I stayed away too long


and did I leave your mind when I was gone?


It's not my thing trying to get back.


Darlin' let me tell you where I'm at.





I wanna be where you are...Oh Oh


I wanna be where you are...Oh Oh Oh Oh


I wanna be where you are...Oh Oh, darlin'


I wanna be where you are...Oh Oh Oh Oh





You don't have to worry 'cause I'm coming


back to where I always should have stayed.


Now I've learned the meaning to your story, Mama,


and there's enough love for me to stay.





I wanna be where you are... Oh Oh, yes darlin'


I wanna be where you are... Oh Oh Oh Oh


I wanna be where you are... Oh Oh, yes Mama


I wanna be where you are... Oh Oh Oh Oh





Please don't close the door to our future.


There's so many things we haven't tried.


I will love you better than I used to


and give you all the love, yes, I have inside, yeah.
