  • If I could find assurance
    To leave you behind
    I know my better half would fade
    And all my doubts
    Is a staircase for you
    Opened out of this maze

    The first step is the one you believe in
    The second one might be profound

    I'll follow you down through the eye of the storm
    Don't worry I'll keep you warm
    I'll follow you down
    While we're passing through space
    I don't care if we fall from grace
    I'll follow you down

    You can have the money and the world
    The angels and the pearls
    Even trademark the color blue
    Just like the tower we never built
    In the shadow of all the guilt
    When the other hand was pointed at you

    Yeah, the first step is the one you believe in
    And the second one might be profound

    I'll follow you down through the eye of the storm
    Don't worry I'll keep you warm
    I'll follow you down while we're passing through space
    I don't care if we fall from grace
    I'll follow you down to where forever lies
    Without a doubt, I'm on your side
    There's nowhere else that I would rather be
    I'm not about to compromise
    Give you up to say goodbye
    I'll guide you through the deep
    I'll keep you close to me

    I'll follow you down through the eye of the storm
    Don't worry I'll keep you warm
    I'll follow you down
    While we're passing through space
    I don't care if we fall from grace
    I'll follow you

    If I could find assurance
    To leave you behind
    I know my better half would fade
    I'll follow you down Writer/s: Brent Smith, Dave Bassett, Eric Bass

  • Anon from UkA toss up between this miracle and if you only knew for my husband and I's first dance song. Miracle won but this is a beautiful love song that means a lot to us and this was on the wedding playlist too.
  • Bailey from Cincinatti, OhioThis is I and my boyfriend's song :) beautiful lyrics!
  • Zero from The Abyss, NjIt seems that this song is a wedding song for a lot of people recently.
  • Melissa from Newtown, PaThis will always be my favorite song for the soul fact this is my wedding song. My husband and I both love rock and we didn't want anything clichéd in a sense. We were going through the playlist and stop here. September 14 2013 was the best day for me and the love of this song will continue down to our children and they will always know Shinedown.
