Christopher Jackson - Where You Are lyrics

[Chief Tui:] Moana, make way, make way Moana, it's time you knew The village of motonui is all you need The dancers are practicing They dance to an ancient song [Villagers:] Who needs a new song? This old one's all we need [Chief Tui:] 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 [Villagers:] Make way! That's all you need We make! [Baby Moana:] I wanna see... [Chief Tui:] Don't walk away Moana, stay on the ground now Our people will need a chief and There you are [Villagers:] There you are [Chief Tui & Sina:] There comes a day When you're gonna look around And realize happiness is where you are [Chief Tui:] Consider the coconut Consider its tree We use each part Of the coconut That's all we need [Villagers:] The what? We use each part Of the coconut That's all we need [Sina:] 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 [Villagers:] 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 [Chief Tui:] Consider the coconuts The trunks and the leaves [Chief Tui & Sina:] The island gives us what we need [Young Moana:] And no one leaves... [Chief Tui:] 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 [Villagers:] There you are [Chief Tui & Sina:] You must find happiness Right where you are [Gramma Tala:] 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 [Men:] 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 [Sina & Women:] 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 [Chief Tui:] The village believes in us [Women:] That's right! [Chief Tui & Sina:] The village believes The island gives us What we need [Women:] The island gives us What we need [Chief Tui:] And no one leaves [Moana:] 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 [Village:] There we are...
