I had this dream where I grew wings
And I could soar above the trees
Just like you
Just like you do
I wish I could
I follow you
You might even ask me,
"Do I follow you 'cause you believe in me?"
I know you see
Every wicked deed
You say you forget
You say you forgive
I know you
I know you do, I wish I could
I follow you
You might even ask me,
"Do I follow you 'cause you believe in me?"
You were the only one who ever believed in me
You said you knew I'd be whatever I chose to be
So when it came my turn I stood up and spoke my name
And they condemned me 'cause I couldn't match up to you
I could never catch up to you
Though I tried very hard
And I could never be angry
Because it wasn't your fault
You know me
You know I'm not
I wish I was
I follow you
You might even ask me,
"Do I follow you 'cause you believed in me?"
