Where You Are

Lin-Manuel Miranda

    Continues after the ad

    Moana, make way, make way
    Moana, it's time you knew
    The village of Motunui is all you need
    The dancers are practicing
    They dance to an ancient song

    Who needs a new song?
    This old one's all we need

    This tradition is our mission
    And Moana there's
    So much to do
    Don't trip on the taro root
    That's all you need
    We share everything we make
    We joke and we
    Weave our baskets
    The fishermen come back
    From the sea

    Make way!
    That's all you need
    We make!

    A ha!

    I wanna see

    Don't walk away
    Moana, stay on the ground now
    Our people will need a chief and
    There you are

    There you are

    There comes a day
    When you're gonna look around
    And realize happiness is where you are

    Consider the coconut

    Consider its tree
    We use each part
    Of the coconut
    That's all we need

    We make our nets
    From the fibers

    The water is
    Sweet inside

    We use the leaves
    To build fires

    We cook up
    The meat inside

    Consider the coconuts

    The trunks and the leaves

    The what?

    We use each part
    Of the coconut
    That's all we need

    We make our nets
    From the fibers

    The water is
    Sweet inside

    We use the leaves
    To build fires

    We cook up
    The meat inside

    Consider the coconuts

    Ha!

    The island gives us what we need

    And no one leaves

    That's right we stay
    We're safe and
    We're well provided
    And when we look
    To the future
    There you are
    You'll be okay
    In time you'll learn
    Just as I did

    There you are

    You must find happiness
    Right where you are

    I like to dance with the water
    The undertow and the waves
    The water is mischievous, ha!
    I like how it misbehaves
    The village may think I'm crazy
    Or say that I drift too far
    But once you know what you like
    Well there you are

    You are your father's daughter
    Stubbornness and pride
    Mind what he says but remember
    You may hear a voice inside
    And if the voice starts to whisper
    To follow the farthest star
    Moana, that voice inside
    Is who you are

    We make our nets
    From the fibers
    The water's sweet inside
    We use the leaves
    To build fires
    To cook up
    The meat inside

    The village believes in us

    The village believes
    The island gives us
    What we need

    And no one leaves

    So here I'll stay
    My home, my
    People beside me
    And when I
    Think of tomorrow
    There we are

    I'll lead the way
    I'll have my people
    To guide me
    We'll build our
    Future together

    Cause every path
    Leads you back to

    You can find happiness right

    We weave our nets
    From the fibers
    A real tasty treat inside
    We sing the songs
    In our choirs
    We have mouths
    To feed inside

    That's right!
    The island gives us
    What we need

    There we are

    Where we are
    Where you are
    Where you are
    Where you are
