Where Do I Go from Here?

Rating: 4 Stars4 Stars4 Stars4 Stars
Words & Music: Paul Williams
If I knew the way I'd go back home
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 crossed

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 when he knows there's something missing
Tell me where, where will I go from here
Where will I go from here

Get back home where my childhood dreams and wishes still are none of 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 when he knows there's something missing
Tell me where, where will I go from here
Where will I go from here

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 when he knows there's something missing
Tell me where, where will I go from here
Where will I go from here

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 when he knows there's something missing
Tell me where, where will I go from here
Where will I go from here

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 when he knows there's something missing
Tell me where, where will I go from here
Where will I go from here
Recorded: 1972/03/27, first released on Elvis (Fool)

a song i really love and can get into. i have been playing this quite al lot recently. it fits spot on in the standing room only album (the album that never was) that ftd released, i think that album could of been a chart topper if it was released.

Featured on an album of remainders from some good early 70s sessions. The album itself should have been budgeted on the Camden label instead of hitting the shops at full price. The song isn't to bad, but I can see why it got a late release.

By far the weakest song from the March '72 recordings sessions that produced "Burning Love", "Always On My Mind", "Separate Ways" and "Fool". This "leftover" would have been an ok LP track on a strong album, but it was a featured song on the LP "Elvis (Fool) (listed on the front cover???). An album of leftovers, oddities and three or four really good songs, this is not one of the really good songs on the album. Not bad, but one of the lesser 70's ballads.

The song isnt too bad but the LP was a complete mess with no rhyme or reason for being released in the manner it was.
