Where Are We Now? Lyrics by Orville Peck
It’s been a long time since we’ve seen this place
Well, I guess I never thought we’d be back again
But even if we could, I wouldn’t change a thing
You know this is the first time in a long time that I’ve felt like this
And I remember
Each whispered word, each heavy crown
The longest roads least traveled down
We knew that we could never stay
Every cowgirl has her day
We carry on, no time to cry
When there’s mountains left to climb
Where are we now?
Where are we now?
Where are we now?
Where are we now?
Where are we now?
The night feels cold when you take a stand
I play those days in my head, ’round and ’round, and how it hurt so bad
Where we were, what we were doing, and how we had to move ahead
We thought that it was gonna raise us up
Instead of rise again
‘Cause I remember
Each whispered word, each heavy crown
The longest roads least traveled down
We knew that we could never stay
Every cowgirl has her day
We carry on, no time to cry
When there’s mountains left to climb
Where are we now?
‘Cause we can’t go on saying it weren’t wrong how it ended
And we hope for change, but there’s still the pain of remembering
If I knew back then, what I know right now
I’d have never wasted one more day in this town
And look at us now
Each whispered word, each heavy crown
The longest roads least traveled down
We knew that we could never stay
Every cowgirl has her day
We carry on, no time to cry
When there’s mountains left to climb
Where are we now?
Where are we now?
Where are we now?
Where are we now?
Where are we now?
Where are we now? (Ooh, where are we now?)
Hey
Where are we now?
