Lyrics
Going Nowhere
Something said don’t go there but I went there any way
Something said turn around you’re making a mistake
But I kept on going straight
And when I finally got there I said where in the world am I
I looked around and simply found there was nothing I recognized
So I stood there scratching my head with a puzzled look on my face
And I thought to myself I don’t ever recall being in this place
There was nothing much there to do there was nothing much there to see
There was nothing really at all that actually impressed me
Going nowhere I think that’s what I just did
Going nowhere boy do I feel stupid
Going nowhere going nowhere
I finally see what it means to be going nowhere
Traveling round in circles ain’t got me very far
And every trip around this mountain takes me right back to the start
Even when I change direction and think finally I’m get’n somewhere
When I arrive at that destination I find there’s nothing there
As I look back over my life and try to make sense of it
The ups and downs and the turn arounds there’s something I must admit
I really ain’t any further from where I started out
And for all the time and energy I spent I just can’t figure how
Something said don’t go there but I went there any way
Something said turn around you’re making a mistake
But I kept on going straight
Going nowhere going nowhere going nowhere going nowhere
