  • Wanting you the way I do
    I only wanna be with you
    And I would go
    To the ends of the earth
    'Cause, darling
    To me that's what you're worth

    Where you lead, I will follow
    Anywhere that you tell me to
    If you need, you need me to be with you
    I will follow where you lead

    If you're out on the road
    Feeling lonely, and so cold
    All you have to do is call my name
    And I'll be there on the next train

    Where you lead, I will follow
    Anywhere that you tell me to
    If you need, you need me to be with you
    I will follow where you lead

    I always wanted a real home with flowers on the window sill
    But if you wanna live in New York City, honey, you know I will
    (Yes I will, yes I will)
    I never thought I could get satisfaction from just one man
    But if anyone can keep me happy, you're the one who can

    Where you lead, I will follow
    Anywhere that you tell me to
    If you need, you need me to be with you
    I will follow, oh

    Where you lead, I will follow
    Any-anywhere that you tell me to
    If you need, you need me to be with you
    I will follow where you lead
    Oh, baby, ooh

    I'm gonna follow where you lead
    (I'm gonna follow where you lead)
    Oh, baby, yeah, yeah
    I'm gonna follow where you lead
    (I'm gonna follow where you lead)
    Ooh, sugar, uh-huh
    I'm gonna follow where you lead
    (I'm gonna follow where you lead)
    Oh, baby, yeah
    I'm gonna follow where you lead
    (I'm gonna follow where you lead) Writer/s: Carole King, Toni Stern

  • Anonymous from Wheaton, IllinoisTwo days ago I was angry with my husband because he makes almost all of the decisions in our family. The TAPESTRY album happened to be playing in the background, and the song was “Where You Lead.” I took the CD out of the player, broke it into pieces, and threw the pieces into the trash. Such a poetic/symbolic moment. He got the message! (We are 72 years old.)
