Songtexte Where You Are (Demo) - Lin-Manuel Miranda
Moana, make way, make way
Moana, it's time you know the village of Motonui is all you need
The dancers are practicing
They dance to an ancient song
(Who needs a new song? This old one's all we need)
This tradition is our mission
And Moana, there is so much to do (make way)
Don't trip on the taro root, that's all you need
We share everything we make (we make)
We gossip and weave our baskets (ha, ha)
The fisherman come back from the sea (I wanna see)
Don't walk away
Moana, stay on the ground now
Our people will need a chief
And there you are
There comes a day
When you're gonna look around
And realize that happiness
Is where you are
Consider the coconut (the what?)
Consider its tree
We use each part of the coconut
It's all we need
We make our nets from the fiber
The water is sweet inside
We use the leaves to build fires
To cook up the meat inside
Consider the coconuts
The trunk and the leaves
The island gives us what we need
And no one leaves
It's right, we stay
We're safe and we're well provided
And when you look to the future
There you are (there you are)
You'll be okay
In time, you'll learn just as I did
You must find happiness
Right (where you are)
I like to dance with the water
The undertow and the waves
The water is mischievous, ha
I like how it misbehaves
The village may think I'm crazy
And say that I drift too far
But once you know what you like
Well, there you are
You are your father's daughter
Stubbornness and pride
Do what he says, but remember
You may hear a voice inside
And if the voice starts to whisper
To follow the farthest star
Moana, that voice inside
Is who you are
We make our nets from the fibers (we make our nets from the fibers)
The water is sweet inside (the water is sweet inside)
We use the roots to build fires (we use the roots to build fires)
To cook up the meat inside (to cook up the meat inside)
Consider the coconuts (consider the coconuts)
The trunk and the leaves (ah!)
The island gives us what we need
No one leaves
Yes, it's true
Some days are tougher and longer
But when we most need a leader
There you are (there you are)
We'll look to you
It makes you wiser and stronger
You'll find the answers are waiting
Where you are
We'll look to you
It makes you wiser and stronger
You'll find the answers are waiting
Where you are
