people tell me there will come a time
when your heart and mine will grow cold
no more staring at the evening sky
low replaces high when you're old
as long as you're around I'll follow you
you won't ever be alone
as long as you're around I'll follow you
I will be wherever you go
they say the future is our enemy
time eventually will set the sun
but I believe in you and you believe in me
how can we ever go wrong?
as long as you're around I'll follow you
you won't ever be alone
as long as you're around I'll follow you
I will be wherever you go
so be patient baby
hold me close
I hope you understand
you're a beautiful woman
and I'm just a man
so in the hours of the darkest kind
when it's hard to find who we are
one can stare into the other's eyes
be each other's light in the dark
as long as you're around I'll follow you
you won't ever be alone
as long as you're around I'll follow you
I will be wherever you go
