My Love Follows Where You Go

My Love Follows You Where You Go
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 killin' 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 killin' 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 killin' me
Watchin' you walk away slow

  1. I love this song. Music speaks such truth! Each line ... Starin' at the unknown with Jesus in his soul ... One of my greatest wishes is that we could just step back in time whenever we wanted. I wanted to just hold Sam in my arms as a baby or walk the woods with Daddy ... No wonder so many folks live in the past. Thank goodness our future is a promise and there are hostas to plant and kitty litter to change!
    Love,
    Susan
