“Where Do I Go From Here?”
The countryside has changed so much, I’d surely end up lost
Half remembered names and faces so far in the past
On the other side of the bridges that were burned once they were crossedTell me where, where does a fool go
When there’s no one left to listen
To a story without meaning that nobody wants to hear
Tell me where, where does a fool go
Tell me where, where will I go from here
Where will I go from hereGet back home where my childhood dreams and wishes
Still outnumber my regrets
Go back to a place where I can figure all the odds
Have a fighting chance to lose the blues and win my share of bets
Tell me where, where does a fool go
When there’s no one left to listen
To a story without meaning that nobody wants to hear
Tell me where, where does a fool go
Tell me where, where will I go from here
Where will I go from hereTell me where, where does a fool go
When there’s no one left to listen
To a story without meaning that nobody wants to hear
Tell me where, where does a fool go
Tell me where, where will I go from here
Where will I go from hereTell me where, where does a fool go
When there’s no one left to listen
To a story without meaning that nobody wants to hear
Tell me where, where does a fool go
Tell me where, where will I go from here
Where will I go from hereTell me where, where does a fool go
When there’s no one left to listen
To a story without meaning that nobody wants to hear
Tell me where, where does a fool go
Tell me where, where will I go from here
Where will I go from here
