Nowhere Else To Go Lyrics - Johnny Rivers

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 

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

Don't turn me away, I don't know how to pray 

I've got nowhere else to go 

Oh yeah 

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

I've got nowhere else to go Lord
