Hold me up to the light
Tell me if the sun comes shining through
And I've got this heaviness in my chest
Since your love came breaking through
And I wanna know where it's coming from
Where is this coming from?
Where is this coming from?
And I wanna know what you're running from
What are you running from?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Lay my dreams down at your feet
Baby, watch out where you step
And there's no need for us
Knowing all the answers yet
And I wanna know what you're running from
What are you running from?
What are you running from?
And I wanna know where it's coming from
Where is this coming from?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
You're back for a minute and you're gone
And I'll never know how close I came
You're back for a minute and you're gone
And I'll never know how close
You're back for a minute and you're gone
And I'll never know how
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I?
Tell me if the sun comes shining through
And I've got this heaviness in my chest
Since your love came breaking through
And I wanna know where it's coming from
Where is this coming from?
Where is this coming from?
And I wanna know what you're running from
What are you running from?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Lay my dreams down at your feet
Baby, watch out where you step
And there's no need for us
Knowing all the answers yet
And I wanna know what you're running from
What are you running from?
What are you running from?
And I wanna know where it's coming from
Where is this coming from?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
You're back for a minute and you're gone
And I'll never know how close I came
You're back for a minute and you're gone
And I'll never know how close
You're back for a minute and you're gone
And I'll never know how
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I?
Song facts
"I really like that line, "Lay my dreams at your feet." That was the starting point for the song and I guess it's a bit of a tamer version of a George Harrison song – "What is my life, without you" [What Is Life]. That must have been somewhere in my brain when I was writing the song so we went all out with the ukulele and African kind of drum-wailing, which my drummer Ed really likes to do, so we kind of let him go all out on this song. It's a lighter song after a couple of heavy ones." - Vance Joy
