Lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 

I will follow you
Follow you wherever you may go
There isn’t an ocean too deep
A mountain so high it can keep me away

I must follow you
Ever since you touched my hand I know
That near you I always must be
And nothing can keep you from me
You are my destiny

I love you, I love you, I love you
And where you go I’ll follow, I’ll follow, I’ll follow
You’ll always be my true love, my true love, my true love
From now until forever, forever, forever

Follow you wherever you may go
There isn’t an ocean too deep
A mountain so high it can keep
Keep me away, away from my love

I love you, I love you, I love you

Follow you wherever you may go
There isn’t an ocean too deep
A mountain so high it can keep
Keep me away, away from my love

And where you go I’ll follow
