I always know where I am.
She texted, “I’ve arrived here.”
But I knew I was here.
How could she say that she is here
when she is over there?

I always know where I am.
I know I’m always here.
Of course that isn’t saying much;

It’s what I’d rather hear.
That is, of course, unless you find
you’re really over there.
