What Now, What Next, Where To
Words & Music: Don Robertson/Hal Blair
Lyrics:
Like a ship without a compass on a cold lonely sea
No beacon light of love to guide me through
I lost the only treasure that means anything to me
What now, what next, where to?
I thought I had a love that would be mine eternally
I felt so sure you'd be forever true
Now everything I counted on has crumbled under you
What now, what next, where to?
You were part of every dream I dreamed, of everything I planned
How could I know our castles were built upon the sand
Won't heaven send an angel please, to tell me what to do
What now, what next, where to?
What now, what next , where to?

Everytime I hear that song I think of my breakup with my first girlfriend.
She was 14 and I was 12. She said I was too short and immature for her.
What does she know
