"Here I Go Again" lyrics
"Here I Go Again"
I don't know where I'm going
But I sure know where I've been
Hanging on the promises
In songs of yesterday
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
Here I go again
Here I go again
Though I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what I'm looking for
Oh, Lord, I pray
You give me strength to carry on
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
Here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone
But I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
Just another heart in need of rescue
Waiting on love's sweet charity
I am gonna hold on
For the rest of my days
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
Here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
But here I go again
Here I go again
Here I go again
Here I go
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
Here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
Here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone
I have made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
But here I go again
Here I go again
Here I go again
Here I go
Here I go again

"Here I Go Again" is a power ballad first recorded for their 1982 album, "Saints and Sinners".
A single version of this song was released in 1987 and it reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in October 1987.
David Coverdale told Consequence of Sound about "Here I Go Again",
"It's an old song that I wrote about the breakdown of my first marriage. [...] We just went from being the best of friends to not being the best of friends. And 'Here I Go Again' was about that, and 'Crying in the Rain'. I'm only inspired by events in my life, to document."
Actress Tawny Kitaen, David Coverdale's would-be wife, is featured in 1987
music video for this track. The 1982
video features him and the band.
