Where Can I Go - Philip Bailey

Alright, come on!

Whoo!

I was my own person, I decided every move

Always lived my life the way I wanted to

Livin' crazy, said that I could make it

By myself, without help

High on the mountaintop, I was too big to fall

Thought all my wealth and power

Could help me fly away

But then I saw the writing on the wall, oh…

Where can I go, Lord?

Where can I go without You?

Oh, Lord, it’s a helpless situation

Where can I go, Lord?

(Mm-hmm)

Where can I go without You?

I watched my dreams shatter

Fall before my eyes

After all had failed that I’d ever tried

Such a fool to think that I could make it

On my own, all alone

I tried to run from You

I thought I knew what was best

But tell me, what’s the use

You are my very breath

And right now I must confess, oh…

Where can I go, Lord?

Where can I go without You?

It’s a helpless situation

Where can I go, Lord?

(Yeah)

Where can I go without You?

You know everything about me

Where can I go, Lord?

Where can I go without You?

I had to ask somebody

And they told me «no way!»

Uh-uh-uh…

Where can I go, Lord?

(Nowhere, nowhere)

Where can I go without You?

Listen to me

If I fly beyond the sky to the heavens above

You are there

If I go to the other-most parts of the earth

You are there

And even if, even if I made my bed in Hell

You are there, You are there, uh-huh

Where can I go, Lord?

Where can I go without You?

Said it’s a hopeless situation

Yes, it is, yes, it is

Where can I go, Lord?

(Mm-hmm)

Where can I go without You?

You know everything about me, Lord

Where can I go, Lord?

Where can I go without You?

I had to ask somebody

And they told me «no way!»

Where can I go, Lord?

Where can I go without You?

I know now, Lord

That You made me for Your service

You know, I’ve been all over the world

But I found out a long time ago

That no matter where you go

He’ll meet you there

And just like Jonah found out

You can’t run, you can’t hide from God

Where can I go, Lord?

Where can I go without You…
