Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She said your name by the lockers,
Falling soft from a friend,
Like a sound I remembered
From a life I want again.
I was caught in the static,
With my thoughts in a chain,
Then your laugh cut the quiet
Till I knew my name again.
[Verse 2]
There were weeks I went looking
Through the mess I’d ignored,
Through the drawers full of chaos
I don’t wish for anymore.
Every plan felt unfinished,
Every day wore the same,
Till you turned up out of nowhere
Just as I was losing my aim.
[Pre-Chorus]
When I’m tired of pretending
That I know which way to go,
You don’t ask me for a reason,
You just bring me back home.
[Chorus]
Take me where the feeling stays,
Where the heavy falls away,
Where my hands unclench their ache,
When I hear you say my name.
If the morning loses shape,
If my breath begins to race,
I will still know I’m okay,
When I find you in that place---
Take me where the feeling stays.
[Verse 3]
Now the wind’s getting warmer,
And the sidewalks open wide,
All the weight I used to shoulder
Falls like coins from my side.
What was strained is getting softer,
What was stuck starts to change,
And my thoughts keep drifting backward
To that familiar place again.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
When my thoughts are running circles,
And I’m trying to stay awake,
You put both feet on the ground for me,
You’re the breath I finally take.
[Chorus]
Take me where the feeling stays,
Where the heavy falls away,
Where my hands unclench their ache,
When I hear you say my name.
If the morning loses shape,
If my breath begins to race,
I will still know I’m okay,
When I find you in that place---
Take me where the feeling stays.
[Bridge]
Oh---
Even in the deepest water,
Oh---
Even on the longest drive,
Oh---
I have watched your patience steady
Oh---
At every corner of my life.
When the last door closes on me,
When I’m running out of road,
You’re the one who keeps me moving,
You’re the hand I want to hold.
[Final Chorus]
Cause You are where the feeling stays,
Where the heavy falls away,
Where my hands unclenched their ache,
When I hear you say my name.
If the world should fade today,
If the morning lost its shape,
I would still know I’m okay,
I would still call out your name.
If I start to lose my place,
If my breath begins to race,
I will still know I’m okay, yeah I’m okay,
Even when everything else has changed,
You’re where the feeling stays.
[Outro]
Where the feeling stays,
Where the feeling stays,
Take me there, take me there,
Where the feeling stays,
Where the feeling stays,
Where the feeling stays,
Take me there, take me to,
Where the feeling stays.
She said your name by the lockers,
Falling soft from a friend,
Like a sound I remembered
From a life I want again.
I was caught in the static,
With my thoughts in a chain,
Then your laugh cut the quiet
Till I knew my name again.
[Verse 2]
There were weeks I went looking
Through the mess I’d ignored,
Through the drawers full of chaos
I don’t wish for anymore.
Every plan felt unfinished,
Every day wore the same,
Till you turned up out of nowhere
Just as I was losing my aim.
[Pre-Chorus]
When I’m tired of pretending
That I know which way to go,
You don’t ask me for a reason,
You just bring me back home.
[Chorus]
Take me where the feeling stays,
Where the heavy falls away,
Where my hands unclench their ache,
When I hear you say my name.
If the morning loses shape,
If my breath begins to race,
I will still know I’m okay,
When I find you in that place---
Take me where the feeling stays.
[Verse 3]
Now the wind’s getting warmer,
And the sidewalks open wide,
All the weight I used to shoulder
Falls like coins from my side.
What was strained is getting softer,
What was stuck starts to change,
And my thoughts keep drifting backward
To that familiar place again.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
When my thoughts are running circles,
And I’m trying to stay awake,
You put both feet on the ground for me,
You’re the breath I finally take.
[Chorus]
Take me where the feeling stays,
Where the heavy falls away,
Where my hands unclench their ache,
When I hear you say my name.
If the morning loses shape,
If my breath begins to race,
I will still know I’m okay,
When I find you in that place---
Take me where the feeling stays.
[Bridge]
Oh---
Even in the deepest water,
Oh---
Even on the longest drive,
Oh---
I have watched your patience steady
Oh---
At every corner of my life.
When the last door closes on me,
When I’m running out of road,
You’re the one who keeps me moving,
You’re the hand I want to hold.
[Final Chorus]
Cause You are where the feeling stays,
Where the heavy falls away,
Where my hands unclenched their ache,
When I hear you say my name.
If the world should fade today,
If the morning lost its shape,
I would still know I’m okay,
I would still call out your name.
If I start to lose my place,
If my breath begins to race,
I will still know I’m okay, yeah I’m okay,
Even when everything else has changed,
You’re where the feeling stays.
[Outro]
Where the feeling stays,
Where the feeling stays,
Take me there, take me there,
Where the feeling stays,
Where the feeling stays,
Where the feeling stays,
Take me there, take me to,
Where the feeling stays.
