Lyrics

(Ahh ahh ahh...)
(Ahh ahh ahh...)

I didn't hear a single sound
There wasn't a dry eye around
The day that I came back to town
And heard you lost your way
It seems as though it were yesterday
We were kids going out to play
Our long ago but simple life
Remember, you promised me you'd be my wife

I’m not sure of the words to say
But I know I’m here to stay

I'm back for you, to take your hand
Lead you from the darkened land
Come to me and we'll take a stand
And we’ll go out to play
I’ll brush the hair back from your eyes
Help you see the bright blue skies
I'll help you to realize
That you'll be safe with me

You can follow me home
No-o matter the road or wherever you roam
Yes, you can follow me home
Open your eyes and see

I walked past the old schoolyard
Where we carved our names in bark
Every ghost from our younger days
Is still lighting up the dark
You faded in the silence slow
But I never let you go
Through every turn and twist and fall
I still believe in all we know

I know it's hard to trust the day
But love has never walked away

I'm back for you, to take your hand
Lead you from the darkened land
Come to me and we'll take a stand
And we’ll go out to play
I’ll brush the hair back from your eyes
Help you see the bright blue skies
I'll help you to realize
That you'll be safe with me

(Guitar Solo)
(Ahh ahh ahh...)

You can follow me home
No-o matter the road or wherever you roam
Yes, you can follow me home
Open your eyes and see

Just open your eyes and see...
You can follow me home...
