Where You Are

Lin-Manuel Miranda / Mark Mancina / Opetaia Foa'i

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
