Here I Go Again Lyrics

I don't know where I'm going But, I sure know where I've been Hanging on the promises In songs of yesterday An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time But, here I go again Here I go again Tho' 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, 'Cos I know what it means To walk along the lonely street of dreams An' here I go again on my own Goin' down the only road I've ever known, Like a drifter I was born to walk alone An' I've made up my mind I ain't wasting no more time I'm just another heart in need of rescue, Waiting on love's sweet charity An' I'm gonna hold on For the rest of my days, 'Cos I know what it means To walk along the lonely street of dreams An' 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 An' 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... An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time An' 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 'Cos I know what it means To walk along the lonely street of dreams An' 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 An' 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, Here I go again...

Meaning of Here I Go Again

Here I go again captures a feeling of cyclical despair and persistent hope. The narrator is trapped in a familiar pattern, repeatedly returning to a situation—likely a failed romance—despite knowing it’s ultimately painful. They acknowledge a lack of direction (“I don't know where I’m going”) yet are driven forward by a stubborn determination ("I ain't wasting no more time"). There’s a deep sense of loneliness and searching, symbolized by the “lonely street of dreams” and being “born to walk alone,” coupled with a yearning for rescue—"just another heart in need of rescue." The repeated refrain, "Here I go again," underscores this relentless return, punctuated by pleas for strength ("Oh Lord, I pray") and an unwavering commitment to hold on, even if it means enduring the same heartache indefinitely. Whitesnake’s powerful vocals amplify the raw emotion, conveying a weary but resolute spirit.
