I'm Already There Lyrics

He called her on the road
From a lonely cold hotel room
Just to hear her say I love you one more time
And when he heard the sound
Of the kids laughing in the background
He had to wipe away a tear from his eye
A little voice came on the phone
And said "Daddy when you coming home"
He said the first thing that came to his mind

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
I'm your imaginary friend
And I know I'm in your prayers
Oh I'm already there

She got back on the phone
Said I really miss you darling
Don't worry about the kids they'll be alright
Wish I was in your arms
Lying right there beside you
But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
And I'll gently kiss your lips
Touch you with my fingertips
So turn out the light and close your eyes

I'm already there
Don't make a sound
I'm the beat in your heart
I'm the moonlight shining down
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there

We may be a thousand miles apart
But I'll be with you wherever you are

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there
Oh I'm already
There

Beautiful song. It's about a man who's away from home for a reason unknown, and it explain how he's feeling and how his family is responding to his absence. This also explains how much he loves his family, and how much they mean to him. Also, how he's saying that he'll always be there for them, no matter what the circumstances are. Wonderful <3

I WANNA GO ONE STEP FURTHER AND SUGGEST THIS COULD ALSO BE A MESSAGE FROM GOD TO US HUMANS ??? HEHEEE THINK ABOUT IT.....

This song could have alot of meanings

  1. A man who wants to get in contact with his family while he is fighting in a war?

  2. A long distance relationship and wanting to tell his family how much he cares for them he could also just be a step father who knows?

  3. Or it could be neither, and just a dream of his that he wishes someone to care for him, a dream that he could love someone and be loved back, to have a family

This song is so amazing.

I think it references someone who wants to console their kids, but they really aren't coming home. The line at the beginning, "Just to hear her say I love you one more time" implies that it will be the last time the speaker hears her say that. The speaker may be dead already or about to be killed. Maybe the speaker is already dead, which would make his/her spoken omnipresence a reality.

If you check the writing credits for this song you will see Richie is named! So this leads me to think the song is about him been on the road with the band & he is ringing his wife to tell her how much he loves her & the kids. The child doesn't understand and just says "Daddy, when ya comin' home". He explains by saying I'm their with you all the time, deep in your heart. Yes it can be about a long distance relationship or a truck driver. Hell it can be about lots of things but I'm just stating the obvious!

thi song really has a special meaning .....my uncle close as a dad was in a bad bad car accident awhile ago...he is paralyzed from the waistdown, he had extensive brain damage and was iffy if he would ever be the same if he lived....but by the grace of God he did, is the same man he was before, minus the use of his legs....here's where this song comes in...he was in the hospital for 7 months and every night when he talked to my aunt on the phone, he would hear the kids in the background and want to be with them soooo much...he missed his wife.....laying in the intensive care alone...this song made him cry when he still couldn't even speak....God is so good, he saved his life...i love you unc!!!

I love this song...it's given me so much inspiration in my writing. The words are just so beautiful. It makes me think of anyone that has to travel for a living (athlete/singer) and can't see their family. It's real sweet. Okay I'm done being emotional now. :)
