Rather Be Nowhere

Rather Be Nowhere


I wanna make it with you I wanna break it with you
Fly off to Morocco or Jamaica will do
Or we can sit down on the floor and have the sand stay on the shore
Cock an eye at roadmaps still to come and those before

There's a bunch of busy colors on those maps
Okay moving around long as we get our naps
Immature or sage, but time won't get its due
Yeah, I'd rather not be there, rather be nowhere
Rather be nowhere with you

If it means we gotta sometimes squint our eyes
As long as we're together it'll be no surprise
When the stars all blur and stumble away
When our hands are our touch
And our touch starts to sway

'Cause the running and the talking aren't real
Yeah we need 'em sometimes, but they ain't no big deal
I think the stars are in your head, o yes it's true
And I'd rather not be there, rather be nowhere
Rather be nowhere with you

There's a pretty place, a picture on my wall
Sign off my thought, to destiny I crawl
When I'm floating will you be there with me?
When I'm sinking slow will you be my sea?

On the corner 'cross the street I'm afraid
All the people we were turn their backs just to fade
And so the old has turned into the new
But I don't care to be there, not to be anywhere,
Rather be nowhere with you
