[Verse 1]
It was a summer night
The stars were all aligned
You, you, you, you showed up and blew my mind
We didn't sleep at all
Played records all night long
That, that, that night, I kinda fell in love

[Pre-Chorus]
Somethin' in your kiss made my body electric
And you set me free
That night brought to life all the magic that's inside
Of you and me

[Chorus]
Wherever you are, you are forever on my mind
Wherever you are, know that our love will never die
Wherever you are (Oh)
Wherever you are, love will never die
Wherever you are
Wherever you are

[Verse 2]
Electric warrior love
The sun was comin' up
Red, red, red wine and whiskey on your tongue
Tangled up in your sheets
You saw the real me
You, you, you give me somethin' to believe

[Pre-Chorus]
Somethin' in your kiss made my body electric
You set me free
That night brought to life all the magic that's inside
Of you and me

[Chorus]
Wherever you are, you are forever on my mind
Wherever you are, know that our love will never die
Wherever you are (Oh)
Wherever you are, love will never die
Wherever you are
Wherever you are (Wherever, wherever)
Wherever you are (Oh)
Wherever you are (Oh)

[Bridge]
Nothin' lasts forever
But I'll always remember
Those nights we spent together
Wherever, wherever

[Chorus]
Wherever you are (Oh)
Wherever you are, love will never die
Wherever you are (Wherever you are)
Wherever you are (Wherever, wherever)
Love will never die
Wherever you are

Kesha

Kesha Rose Sebert, whose mononymous stage name was previously spelled Ke$ha, is an American singer-songwriter best known for hits like “Tik Tok” and “Praying.” Her mother, Pebe Sebert is also a songwriter, and the two have worked together on songs like “Learn to Let Go.”

In 2005, at age eighteen, Kesha signed a record deal with Dr. Luke’s Kemosabe Records. Her first major recording was an uncredited feature on Flo Rida’s 2009 hit “Right ‘Round,” which she recorded after walking into a session between Flo and Dr. Luke. She released her debut album, Animal, the next year, after choosing from hundreds of songs, and the record debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart. Lead single “Tik Tok” broke the record for the longest time for a female artist’s debut single to top the Billboard Hot 100.

Nine months after Animal dropped, Kesha rereleased it alongside Cannibal, an extended play featuring hits like “We R Who We R,” which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and “Blow.” In February 2011, Kesha kicked off her Get Sleazy Tour, which travelled through the Americas, Europe, and Australia. During the tour, she began writing for her sophomore album, Warrior, which was released in November 2012. She then embarked on a world tour, and was joined by future “Timber” collaborator Pitbull on the North American leg.
