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 - and 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 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 - and 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 - and 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
