I am hoping to record this song in the next week or two but wanted to share it now. On the surface, it is just a love song about the disconnect within a relationship and when it finds its way onto spotify etc, perhaps that’s all that a listener will take from it. However, here I can tell you that the inspiration for this song is dementia and for those families touched by that the lyrics might resonate a little deeper.
It is dementia action week May19- 25 and, as I doubt the recorded version will be available by then, I have decided to post this now.

Where are You Now?
c, dm, am
you don’t know I miss you,
you just don’t understand
c, dm, am
even when i’m here beside you
even when i take your hand
f. g
it’s like a door i can’t push through
(f) to reach the other side of you (g7)
(c) where (em) are you (am) now
where can (f) i find you
where can i find you (g) (g7)
(c) where is the (em) love you’ve (am) buried
can i (f) remind you, can i remind you (g)
your eyes they look right through me
It’s like you never knew me
it’s hard to see who i adored be
disappearing right before me
(c) where (em) are you (am) now
where can (f) i find you
where can i find you (g) (g7)
- [ ] (c) where is the (em) love you’ve (am) buried
can i (f) remind you, can i remind you (g)
