Lyrics
I don't wanna be anywhere else. Music and lyrics copyright Vic Arnold 2011
18 years old, out in the cold, a baby of two in my care.
Feelings of doom in the tiniest room, all spent out with nothing to spare.
Then just like a spark, a flash in the dark you came from out of nowhere.
You said I'd pull through. What you told me was true, with just a little love and a prayer.
Chorus
Now I don't wanna be anywhere else but here.
You lifted me up and dried up all of my tears.
And I don't wanna be anywhere else but here.
We ain't got much stuff but it's more than enough. We eat and we live pretty well.
The baby grows strong and we all get along. All of our friends they can tell.
We were the perfect match. You were a prize catch. The minute I saw you I fell.
We love through each day and I just got to say. "You ring my heart like a bell".
Chorus
Now I don't wanna be anywhere else but here.
You lifted me up and dried up all of my tears.
I don't wanna be anywhere else but here.
Instrumental
I'm watching you sleep. Your breathing is deep as I lay my head on your chest.
You make me feel good. I knew that you would. You pass every one of my tests.
The boys in my past will always be last. That part of my life's put to rest.
This is my last chance. This is my last dance and I saved the last for the best.
Chorus
Now I don't wanna be anywhere else but here.
You lifted me up and dried up all of my tears.
Now I don't wanna be anywhere else but here.
