Lyrics Johnny Rivers

Johnny Rivers

Nowhere Else To Go

I used to to think I had it all goin'

Everything I touched turned to gold

I had women and money, fine clothes and cars

My phone was always busy

and my friends were movie stars

I was always the center of attention

Surely everybody knew my name

My life kept on rollin' just like a river

I was always a winner in the game

Somethin' in my soul was missin'

Deep down I knew it couldn't last

Too many people I had stepped on

Too many tears in my past

Nobody ever really mattered

No one could say I was ever true

And slowly I started fallin' for someone

Who was just exactly like me too

Now my plans and dreams have all faded

Everyone I trusted let me down

The one that I loved married my best friend

And they moved to the rich side of town

I feel lost and abused, so confused

And I've never ever ever been so alone

Lord I'm comin' to you with my heart in my hand

Don't turn me away, you got to hear what I say

'Cause I've got nowhere else to go
