About the song
In life, there are moments when love feels distant—not because it’s gone, but because the person we love is physically far away. Scotty McCreery’s “Wherever You Are” captures that bittersweet feeling with a rare blend of tenderness and strength. It’s a love letter sent across the miles, wrapped in the warmth of memory, hope, and unwavering devotion.
This song speaks to anyone who’s ever missed someone so deeply that even the simplest things—a shared laugh, a familiar touch, a quiet glance—become precious treasures in their absence. With his signature deep, velvety voice, McCreery paints a picture of longing that’s not filled with sadness, but with resilience. The narrator doesn’t let distance defeat him; instead, he sends his love through the stars, the skies, and the quiet of the night, promising that no matter where she is, he’s with her in heart and spirit.
What makes “Wherever You Are” so touching is its quiet strength. There’s no grand gesture here, no desperate pleas. Just a steady, faithful love that endures through time and space. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the most powerful way to say “I love you” is simply to be present—even when you’re apart.
The gentle guitar melodies and understated instrumentation let the emotion of the lyrics take center stage. Every word feels sincere, grounded in real-life love—the kind that isn’t always easy, but always worth holding onto. McCreery’s delivery is soft but resolute, as if he’s singing directly to the one he loves, wherever she may be.
For anyone separated from a loved one—whether by distance, circumstance, or even loss—“Wherever You Are” offers comfort. It reminds us that true love knows no boundaries, no limits. It stretches across oceans and years, holding us together with invisible threads of hope and memory. Wherever they are, a part of you is with them. And sometimes, that’s enough to keep the heart beating strong.

Lyrics
Wonder are you on the West Coast
Top down rodeo driving
Maybe up in Colorado
You always did love that Rocky Mountain
High up in Manhattan
Or way out in some cabin
In the middle of nowhere
Well baby I’ll be there
Wherever you are, wherever it is
Baby it ain’t too far
Just give me a call or drop me a pin
Enough of this damn being apart
I’ll fill up a tank or buy me a ticket
Whatever it takes you know I’m with it
And it won’t be long till I’m there by your side
Wherever you are, wherever you are tonight
Are you hanging in a dive bar
Nodding your head to some eighties cover band
Or strolling down some boardwalk
Kicking off your flip flops in the sand
Do you wish I was kissing on your lips
No it won’t take much
So baby just hit me up
Wherever you are, wherever it is
Baby it ain’t too far
Just give me a call or drop me a pin
Enough of this damn being apart
I’ll fill up a tank or buy me a ticket
Whatever it takes you know I’m with it
And it won’t be long till I’m there by your side
Wherever you are, wherever you are tonight
Yeah, wherever you are tonight, oh
Well to tell you the truth
Ain’t a day goes by that I don’t think about you
And I wish I was on my way to
Wherever you are, wherever it is
Baby it ain’t too far
Just give me a call or drop me a pin
Hit send, enough of this damn being apart
I’ll fill up a tank or buy me a ticket
Whatever it takes you know I’m with it
And it won’t be long till I’m there by your side
Wherever you are, wherever you are tonight
Wherever you are tonight, yeah
Yeah ooh ooh
Yeah ooh ooh
