Where We Are Lyrics

[Verse 1: Harry, Liam]
Remember when we would stay out too late
We were young, havin' fun, made mistakes
Did we ever know? Did we ever know?
Did we ever know? Yeah
All the things we'd just think of and say
Never wrong, always right, not afraid
Did we ever know? Did we ever know?
Did we ever know?


[Pre-Chorus: Zayn]
Is it all inside of my head?
Maybe you still think I don't care
But all I need is you
Yeah, you know it's true, yeah, you know it's true

[Chorus: Harry, All]
Forget about where we are and let go
We're so close
If you don't know where to start, just hold on
And don't run, no
We're looking back, we messed around
But that was then and this is now
All we need's enough love to hold us

Where we are
[Verse 2: Louis]
Summer days rushin' by you and me
Makes it harder to see underneath
Did we ever know? Did we ever know?
Did we ever know? (Did we ever know?)

[Pre-Chorus: Zayn]
Is it all inside of my head?
Maybe you still think I don't care
But all I need is you
Yeah, you know it's true, yeah, you know it's true

[Chorus: Harry, All]
Forget about where we are and let go
We're so close
If you don't know where to start, just hold on
And don't run, no
We're looking back, we messed around
But that was then and this is now
All we need's enough love to hold us

Where we are

[Post-Chorus: Harry]
But that was then and this is now
All we need is enough love to hold us
Where we are
[Interlude: Harry]
Where we are, where we are
Where we are, where we are

[Bridge: Niall & Louis]
With closed eyes and open mind
We can be there, we can be there
But this time, let's cross the line
Can you see it? Can you see it?

[Chorus: All, Harry, Zayn]
Forget about where we are and let go
We're so close (If you don't know)
If you don't know where to start, just hold on
And don't run, no (And don't run, no)
We're looking back, we messed around
But that was then and this is now (But that was then and this is now)
All we need's enough love to hold us (To hold us)
Where we are
