More wishes than a thousand hearts can count for you More smiles than a merry-go-round The sweetest ending to a bed-time story told My love follows you where you go More laughter than a kindergarten out to play One Sunday morning song that says it all More summer than a California beach can hold My love follows you where you go Future like a promise, you're a city of Gold Stubborn in your bones and Jesus in your soul Seeing you stand there,staring at the unknown I won't pretend that it's not killing me Watching you walk away slow Take forgiveness, take a prayer, take the deepest breath And take the answers in your heart When you wake up and the world is cruel and cold My love follows you where you go Future like a promise, you're a city of Gold Stubborn in your bones and Jesus in your soul Seeing you stand there,staring at the unknown I won't pretend that it's not killing me Watching you walk away slow More freedom than a field of flowers in the wind More beauty than a morning after rain Up the steepest hill, a dark and crooked road My love follows you where you go Future like a promise, you're a city of Gold Stubborn in your bones and Jesus in your soul Seeing you stand there staring at the unknown I won't pretend that it's not killing me Watching you walk away slow
