Joy Mumford - Where Were You?

It's funny how they're always proud of you
Only when you're doing so well
But tell me where were you in December?
Remember I was going through hell?
It's funny how they always adore you
When everybody knows your name, yeah yeah
But where were you?
Where were you?
Where were you?
Where were you?

What is your secret?
Come on, let us all in
How do you keep up with
All of your faces
Where does one end or begin?

Don't get me started
On all of the times
That you gossip about all your friends
I never was your cup of tea
But now you want to work with me
Isn't it exhausting?

Just know that I'm out here
Drama free living
My own pace, my own lane
This race I'm winning
While you're telling stories
Wish you were in 'em
That doesn't surprise me
No no no

It's funny how they're always proud of you
Only when you're doing so well
But tell me where were you in December?
Remember I was going through hell?
It's funny how they always adore you
When everybody knows your name, yeah yeah
But where were you?
Where were you?
Where were you?
Where were you?

Did you ever find out that
Chasing the wind is a no?
Like remember the time that you dropped me
Cos you didn't think I was profitable?
Little did you know
Every little thing that I touch turns to gold
Maybe should have stuck around
Instead of following the crowd
Isn't it exhausting?

Just know that I'm kind
But no, I'm not stupid
God gave wisdom
Best believe that I use it
You might pull the wool
But know I see through it
Bet that doesn't surprise you
No no no no

It's funny how they're always proud of you
Only when you're doing so well
But tell me where were you in December?
Remember I was going through hell?
It's funny how they always adore you
When everybody knows your name, yeah yeah
But where were you?
Where were you?
Where were you?
Where were you?

Where were you?
Where were you, when I was in the gutter babe?
Where were you?
Where were you, I was standing out in the rain
Where were you?
Won't you tell me please
Where were you, where were you?
Where were you, where were you?

If you're a bit weird
I'm a bit strange
If you've never felt cool, I relate
Now talk to yourself
I want you to say
I know I'm a boss, and I'll be okay
Even when you feel like they don't understand you
Even when it's tough
And you feel like you've lost yourself
May be laughing now
But one day they'll applaud you
When you look this good
It's kinda hard to ignore you

It's funny how they're always proud of you
Only when you're doing so well
But tell me where were you in December?
Remember I was going through hell?
It's funny how they always adore you
When everybody knows your name, yeah yeah
But where were you?
Where were you?
Where were you?
Where were you?
