More wishes than a thousand hearts can count for you More smiles than a merry-go-round The sweetest ending to a bedtime 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 the California beach can hold My love follows you where you go Future like a promise Your city of gold Stubborn in your bones and Jesus in your soul Seeing you stand there Starin' at the unknown I won't pretend that it's not k**in' me Watchin' 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 Your city of gold Stubborn in your bones and Jesus in your soul Seeing you stand there Starin' at the unknown I won't pretend that it's not k**in' me Watchin' you walk away slow More freedom than a field of flowers in the day More beauty than a mornin' after rain Up the steepest hill, a dark and crooked road My love follows you where you go Future like a promise Your city of gold Stubborn in your bones and Jesus in your soul Seeing you stand there Starin' at the unknown I won't pretend that it's not k**in' me Watchin' you walk away slow
