Wherever You Are Lyrics

These times have passed and gone,
It's time that we moved on
Into a new tomorrow
And leave behind the hurt,
The sorrow and the pain
'Cos tonight will never
Pass this way again.

Wherever you are,
Wherever you go,
Wherever you stand
Let your shadow show.

Whatever you think,
Whatever you do,
Whatever you want
Let your feelings show.

These times have passed and gone
It's time that we moved on
Into a new tomorrow
And leave behind the hurt,
The sorrow and the pain

'Cos tonight will never
Pass this way again.

Just like the winter sun
That hides behind the dawn,
Just like the shifting sands
That ride upon the storm

Tonight will never
Pass this way again.

'Cos tonight will never
Pass this way again.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for Wherever You Are lyrics by Moody Blues, The

by mickadee

I used to listen to all of their work that I won over and over again. They always remind to look at life through a loving perspective. My Daady raised me on the Moody Blues and this song ALWAYS brings tears to my eyes because the first time I paid attention to the lyrics was after September 11 and my dad said that the song tells us to move on. Not to forget but, we have to start to heal from what has happened and move on. That night, I lay in bed knowing that what had happened was terrible and I remember running to school listening to my walkman. I stopped and almost fell to the ground hearing the fisrt tower had fallen and I couldn't move. I've healed and The Moody Blues can help others as they have me, I think an understanding can be made. I'm sure that what has happened, will never pass this way again.
