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 goMore 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 goFuture 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 slowTake 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 goFuture 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 slowMore 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 goFuture 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
