WHERE YOU STAND
Bumper car me left or right
I’ll take a thousand knocks
There’s a happy man in there
And you won’t blink your eyes
Like all the things you lost before i
Right where you left me you know-oh
Like all the things you found
Mmm mmm
Don’t taste them just swallow them whole
I forfeit my time
And wait
While you make up your mind
So tell me
If you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Lift me up or tear me down
I’ll stand right up again
There’s happy soul in there
But you won’t let him in
Like all the things we say before me
Crumble and fall to the floor
Like all the things we try
Aye aye
I know where it’s headed and so
I forfeit my time
And wait while you re-make up your mind up
So tell me
If you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Oh I will be right by you where you stand
I will deliver
Where you stand I will not fall
Where you stand there is no ocean
Nor a river nor a shore
I fall into line
And wait while you make up your mind
So tell me if you ever find your flag
I forfeit my time
And wait
While you make up your mind
So tell me
If you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Oh I will be right by you where you stand
Oh I will be right by you where you stand

Thanks a lot Fran. Just watched the video and though it was a beautiful song. Your voice sounded great too, especially on those higher notes in the chorus. Can't wait for the rest of the album.
I also hope you guys make it to New Zealand the next time your tour internationally. I grew up with the earlier albums and a lot of the songs have very personal and sentimental meaning as I'm sure they do for many fans. It would really make my decade to be able to see Travis live. |

| "NOR A river,NOR A shore" makes me smile even though I know it is not intentional (or is it?) :) |

Interesting observation, although Dougie co-wrote it with someone else. |

| Thank you so much for posting the lyrics, Fran! Otherwise it would have been pretty hard for me (being German and thus no native speaker) to understand every single word. Before I saw your post, I tried to find the lyrics by ear (I needed them for my piano cover version of "Where You Stand" ) - and when I compared "my" lyrics to yours there was, well, a little difference ;) |
