Lyrics

Verse 1

Raindrops rollin' off my brim
Streetlights got the pavement glistenin'
Touchdown, I fall into Your arms
Right where I belong
Your everlasting arms

Pre-Chorus

And where would I be
Without You...

Chorus

I'd be packin' my bags when I need to stay
I'd be chasin' every breeze that blows my way
I'd be building my kingdom just to watch it fade away
It's true
That's me without You-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou
That's me without You-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou
That's me without You-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou
Don't know where I'd be without You
(Wooooah, without you)

Verse 2

Flashback, step into the scene
There's You and there's a very different me
Touchdown, You had me at believe
You had me at believe, You did

Pre-Chorus (Repeat)

And where would I be
Without You, without You...

Chorus (Repeat)

(Where would I be...)

Bridge

[WHISPERING]
(I was so deep,
So incomplete
Til' You rescued me
Yeah, You rescued me)

You rescued me
You are mine, I am Yours
You rescued me
And I am Yours forever
You saved me, remade me

Final Chorus

And where would I be

I'd be packin' my bags when I need to stay
I'd be chasin' every breeze that blows my way
I'd be building my kingdom just to watch it fade away
It's true
That I'd be packin' my bags when I need to stay
I'd be chasin' every breeze that blows my way
I'd be building my kingdom just to watch it fade away
So true
That's me without You-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou
That's me without You-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou
That's me without You-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou
Don't know where I'd be without You

Outro

That's me without You-ou-ou-ou
That's me without You-ou-ou-ou
That's me without You-ou-ou-ou
Don't know where I'd be without You

Meaning & Inspiration

This upbeat testimony song looks back at a life changed by God's rescue. Its opening images of rain and streetlights lead into the line "I fall into Your arms," and the mention of "Your everlasting arms" recalls a phrase from Deuteronomy 33:27.

The repeated question "Where would I be without You?" is answered with a list of restless habits: "packin' my bags when I need to stay," "chasin' every breeze," and "building my kingdom just to watch it fade away." Those lines describe a life of self-reliance that does not last. The whispered bridge turns to thanks, with the words "You rescued me" and "You saved me, remade me," which can be read alongside the new-creation language of 2 Corinthians 5:17.

The long vocal refrain at the end keeps the focus on gratitude and belonging to God.
