What Am I Going to Do?

Idlewild · Other Songs - Idlewild

I'm gonna go down, I'm gonna go down

I'm gonna go downtown to see the sun

And when I go down, when I go down

When I go downtown to see the sun



I won't go anywhere, I won't go anywhere

Anywhere without you

Somewhere isn't anywhere



I'm gonna go down, I'm gonna go down

I'm gonna go downtown to see your sun
