Dire Straits - Where Do You Think You're Going? Lyrics






Where do you think you're going
Don't you know it's dark outside
Where do you think you're going
Don't you care about my pride
Where do you think you're going
I think you don't know
You got no way of knowing
You got no place to go

I understand your changes
How long before you reach the door
I know where you think you're going
I know what you came here for
And now I'm sick of joking
You know I like you to be free
Where do you think you're going
I think you'd better go with me, girl

You say there is no reason
But you still find cause to doubt me
When you ain't with me girl
You're gonna be without me

Where do you think you're going
Don't you know it's dark outside
Where do you think you're going
Don't you care about my pride
And now I'm sick of joking
You know I like you to be free
Where do you think you're going
I think you'd better go with me, girl

    I've listened to this song so many times. I've never understood why communique is always rated as DS weakest album. Love the cut back guitar and drums.so easy to chill to. sad.angry.moody. Mark gets more emotion out of a guitar than anyone and takes you to so many places with his songs. It's a shame Pick left the band.

    Lyrics

    Where d’ya think you’re going?
    Don’t you know it’s dark outside?
    Where d’ya think you’re going?
    Don’t you care about my pride?

    Where d’ya think you’re going?
    I think that you don’t know
    You got no way of knowing
    Really no place you can go

    I understand your changes
    A-long before you reach the door
    I know where you think you’re going
    I know what you came here for

    And now I’m sick of joking
    You know I like you to be free
    A-where d’ya think ya going?
    I think you better go with me girl

    You say there is no reason
    But you still find cause to doubt me
    If you ain’t with me girl
    You’re gonna be without me

    Yeah

    Where d’ya think you’re going?
    Don’t you know it’s dark outside?
    Where d’ya think you’re going?
    I wish I didn’t care about my pride?

    And now I’m sick of joking
    You know I like you to be free girl
    A-where d’ya think you’re going?
    I think you better go with me girl

    Come on babe

    300 не понятных..

  52. A.... B....

    I think I read somewhere that the Communique album as initially seen as not as good at the first album, but I guess the track " Once upon an Time in the west" was included in the Alchemy concert and its popularity grew. Funny the Communique album was my last edition to my collection -I still love owning anf buying CD's ( second hand OpShops have millions of treasures) and often listen to them instead of online stuff - Still the track "Where do you think you're gong" remains for me the signature Dire Straits sound, like I said, If I was to choose one song to play to someone who has never heard Dire Straits in their whole life, it will be this one....or maybe, Sultans of Swing

    A.... B....

    Arthur Bisset i feel you man. This track is just legendary, but don’t forget “tunnel of love”!

  53. G.... D....

    Fantastica!

  54. p.... g....

    Master and unique Mark.

  55. S.... O....

    Sigo diciendo que es una de las mejores canciones de estos genios, cómo sube de intensidad y cómo acaba apoteósica. Grandes por siempre Dire Straits!!!!!

    W.... C....

    underrated

  60. t.... m....

    After struggling with basic chords for almost 1½ Years, I played along to this song. When I tried it the 2nd time, even the lead guitar part was coming along as I strummed. After that, the guitar has been like a constant companion. This song practically changed my life!

  61. J.... H....

    Cok salam Bir parca ✌️

  62. S.... P....

    I can't choose a single piece thats a favourite, but this is one of them. What dark place did he pull this one from and energy driving it to the finish?

  63. V.... M....

    I’ve just found this gem ..I’m 47 and I only know walk of life and others songs by this cats ..but this one is up there now ..big ups !!

    V.... M....

    This is massive....... I didn’t know what it meant for many years but now I do, it’s heartbreaking for the victims- sending hugs ❤️

  82. M.... S....

    I was in the army then. Better not think about it.

  83. M.... v....

    The world wouldn't be the same without Mark Knopfler and the Dire Straits. it's sad to realize that there is going to be a day without him. thankfully, we can listen to this brilliant music even after. i have been a fan of the dire straits as long as i can remember and i'm NEVER ever tired of hearing it. This, is music. This, is creativity. This, is having a gift. NO autotune. NO computers. Just a man and his guitar. and indeed, lets not forget, the fantastic combo of the band members including that fantastic drummer. It's sad they aren't together anymore. And as good as Mark is and as fantastic his music, i still prefer the Dire Straits. In his solo albums, you can see Mark's 'yourney' with music and his creative capabilities. But in the Dire Straits, it's absolute perfection. Every. Single. Time.

  84. o.... ....

    just ... brilliant

  85. D.... L....

    Schöne Bilder , Musik und die Natur sind einfach fantastisch und unverzichtbar für uns Menschen ! ! !

  86. C.... H....

    Brilliant drummer-brilliant Mark- WHat more do you want?

    C.... H....

    Nothing more. 😉

  87. C.... H....

    The drummer is brilliant-anticipates Mark's every change of speed! CH

    C.... H....

    very true Chris!

    C.... H....

    The great pick withers

  88. C.... H....

    As usual perfection from Leed's adopted son CH

  89. O.... M....

    I just recently purchased all of there albums REMASTERED editions. One of my all time favorite musical groups to ever exist. The Talent of these boys is beyond anything. By the way I still get Music Goose Bumps every time I listen to this track.

  90. L.... G....

    I love songs that ends with fade out

    L.... G....

    Fade to black. 😉 https://youtu.be/iU9FyH4UXH8

  91. C.... B....

    Masterpiece

  92. B.... B....

    Great!!!

  93. I.... B....

    Supercalifragilistic

  94. M.... B....

    The second best song on this album( Once Upon a Time in the West is the best), this is a nice, slow buildup to the finale, just nice, well composed, smooth greatness

  95. K.... K....

    Where do you think you're going
    Leaving the dirty shit I must clean

  96. T.... 7....

    Yet another masterpiece!!!!!
    MK is a genius...all his songs are soooo relatable & all sound AMAZING!!!!

  97. S.... A....

    Once one of my friend asked me why you always listening the old songs.he is a justin bieber kinda music guy.
    i asked him to sit, and i played this song.
    during the last guitar part he closed his eyes and i could see he is tightening his grips on the chair, his hands holding tight...
    then when the song was over i looked at him and i smiled; but he aint said a single word, nor he replied anything, no smiles nothing...
    then i told myself "hey Mark here is another guy for you, take him.."
    now he is a mark knopfler fan better than i do..
