“Where I Want To Be” by Fuller Hull Captures the Stillness of Real Life

The first few notes of “Where I Want To Be” feel like stepping onto a quiet porch just after sunset. There is no rush, no urgency, just a calm voice telling a story that already feels familiar. That is the kind of songwriter Fuller Hull is. He does not perform his songs as much as he lives them in front of you, and this latest single is one of his most personal yet.

Inspired by his own experience juggling work, farm life, and fatherhood, “Where I Want To Be” carries the weight of real moments missed. Early mornings without the kids, dinners skipped, evenings filled with chores and exhaustion. The lyrics do not dramatize any of it. They just tell the truth in a way that hits you slowly, like a memory sneaking up from behind.

Sonically, it is all about space. There is warmth in the guitar, a gentle pace to the rhythm, and Fuller’s voice has that unmistakable worn quality. It has been through a lot and still knows how to offer comfort. There is no studio gloss here. Everything sounds like it was made to be played from a small radio in a quiet kitchen or out in a barn with the door open to the fields.

Fuller Hull’s strength is in his restraint. He trusts the story, trusts the melody, and trusts the listener to meet him part of the way. That is why the song works. It is not about where he has been or what he has achieved on the charts. It is about the choice to stay present, even when life keeps trying to pull you elsewhere.

This song does not chase a moment. It lives in one. For anyone who has ever felt stretched too thin or wondered how time slipped by so fast, “Where I Want To Be” is the kind of track that understands you before you even realize it.
