Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Sent to coventry, feels like hell

This ain't no place to get well

Sent to coventry once again

Break out of this empty shell

Start all over somewhere else

Somewhere much stronger than this

Somewhere I can be myself

'Stead of sittin' on the shelf

[Verse 2]

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

[Verse 3]

There's just this wall of hate

Of some twisted fate

'Cause I can't be a part

Something that doesn't have no heart

Save myself, save the others

Right now, run for cover

Try to start another dream

And stop this empty scheme

[Verse 4]

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

[Verse 5]

Sent to coventry, feels like hell

This ain't no place to get well

Sent to coventry once again

Got to break out of this empty shell

Start all over somewhere else

Somewhere much stronger than this

Somewhere I can be myself

'Stead of sittin' on the shelf

[Verse 6]

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

[Verse 7]

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

Go where the love is, yeah yeah

Yeah yeah go where the love is

Yeah yeah yeah go where the love is

[Verse 8]

Gotta go, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta

Go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is

Got to go where the love is
