I don't know (I don't know)
Where to go (Where to go)
Baby I, baby I, don't know
I don't know
Where to go (Where to go)
Baby I, baby I don't know

You got me spinnin round in circles (round and round)
On my mind all the time
I just don't know where I'm goin
Can't you see?
Your loves really got a hold on me
Don't know where to go
Without your love I just don't know

I don't know (I don't know)
Where to go (Where to go)
Baby I, baby I, don't know

Where to go (Where to go)
Baby I, baby I don't know

I'm so confused
I'm so lost sometimes
I can't sleep at night
Without you in my life
And its so hard
To let you go
So please come back home
Cause without you
I don't know

I just want to get next to you baby
I just want to get next to you baby

Can't you see?
Your loves really got a hold on me
Don't know where to go
Without your love I just don't know

I don't know (I don't know)
