"Where Do I Go from Here?" is a song from the the direct-to-video Disney film, Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World. It is sung by Pocahontas after she finds John Smith's compass in the snow and grieves his "death."

She later sings this song towards the end of the movie when she realizes that she must be herself in order for people to truly accept her, and when she is torn between her old lover, John Smith, and her new lover, John Rolfe. The scene somewhat mirrors the scene in the movie, Mulan, when Mulan sings Reflection, as both girls look at their reflection, wipe off all their makeup and let their hair down, with the intent of accepting themselves for who they are.

Lyrics[]

The earth is cold
The fields are bare
The branches fold against the wind that's everywhere
The birds move on
So they survive
When snow's so deep
The bears all sleep to keep themselves alive
They do what they must for now
And trust in their plan
If I trust in mine, somehow
I might find who I am

Chorus:
But where do I go from here?
So many voices ringing in my ear
Which is the voice that I was meant to hear?
How will I know?
Where do I go from here?

My world has changed and so have I
I've learned to choose
And even learned to say goodbye
The path ahead's so hard to see
It winds and bends but where it ends
Depends on only me
In my heart I don't feel part of so much I've known
Now it seems it's time to start
A new life on my own

Chorus:
But where do I go from here?
So many voices ringing in my ear
Which is the voice that I was meant to hear?
How will I know?
Where do I go from here?

In some new place on some new face I've never seen
I might find where I belong someday
And there may even be another dream for me
Waiting there somewhere along the way
Who knows where I go from here?
So many voices, only one thing's clear
There's nothing to lose, nothing to fear
The past is gone, I must move on from here
