already there - Jasmine Thompson, MOTi

Got a job at a dead-end place

I was happy just getting paid

Started smoking ten years too late

Didn’t know life could change that way

When we met in the bar right when your friends were leaving

Stay still last orders, talking till three and

Asked me to meet you at Bloomsbury Square

Well, baby, I’m already there

I was thrown by your childish ways

How you’d laugh when I’d make mistakes

How we’d go without sleep for days

Ain’t no hope in me thinking straight

Forward five weeks, I’m in your parents' kitchen

Your mom talks a lot and your dad does the dishes

You tell me that nothing has ever compared

Well, baby, I’m already there

Got a place way too small for two

But you said it’s enough for you

Found a staircase up to the roof

To this day it’s my favourite view

'Cause you looked up and finished the beer you were drinking

Taking my hand, I could tell what you’re thinking

You said, «I love you,» for once I’m not scared

'Cause baby, I’m already there

Second summer we spent apart

Sleeping underneath different stars

They all said it’d be really hard

But I think that distance made our hearts grown fonder

'Cause I called and cried, «I can’t take any longer»

As I look out the window, it’s worth it, I swear

'Cause baby, I’m already there

Baby, I’m already there

Baby, I’m already there

Baby, I’m already there
