Mm-hmm
Oh-oh
Mm
Verse 1
Rented a room with a western view
Boxes stacked up to my knee
Every siren sounds a little like you
So I hum along so I don't think
Slowly I'm getting used to the quiet
Cooking one plate at a time
I still leave the hallway light on
Old habit I can't quite unwind
Pre-Chorus
I've been waking I've been wandering
There's a version of me I keep squandering
I can't be who I want to be
While I'm holding what you gave to me
Chorus
Somewhere on my way
Building something with my own name
Step by step each day
Learning how to want me the same
I miss your voice but I'm alright
Some roads split and that's just life
Somewhere on my way
And I won't hand myself away
Oh-oh somewhere on my way
Oh-oh I'm getting there someday
Verse 2
Weekends I walk to the market
Bread and basil in a paper sack
Strangers nod and I nod back
Nobody here knows my past
Sometimes your name still crosses my mind
Like a train I decided not to ride
I let it pass and I stay right here
Making something out of my own years
Pre-Chorus
I've been slipping I've been steady
Learning how to hold myself already
I can love you and still leave
Somewhere new is where I breathe
Chorus
Somewhere on my way
Building something with my own name
Step by step each day
Learning how to want me the same
I miss your voice but I'm alright
Some roads split and that's just life
Somewhere on my way
And I won't hand myself away
Bridge
Maybe in a kinder year
We would both have landed here
But I can't keep standing still
Waiting on a maybe that never will
I hope you're well I hope you're warm
While I weather out this storm
No hard words and no goodbye
Just two people learning how to fly
Final Chorus
Somewhere on my way
Building something with my own name
Step by step each day
Learning how to want me the same
I miss your voice but I'm alright
Some roads split and that's just life
Somewhere on my way
And I won't hand myself away
Oh-oh somewhere on my way
Oh-oh I'm getting there someday
Mm
Mm-hmm
