Have you all of my lifetime

Kinda hard to make light

Imagining when you were inside

When you made those kicks at night

And a time to walk away

Letting go to let you lead

I don't know how it ends
[Pre-Chorus 2]

Comes a time when you answer

Do it with heart

Want you to express yourself

Not let it get to your head
[Chorus]
D5 A5                G5   D5  E5
You won't let me go astray

D5 A5                G5   D5  E5
You will let me find my way

You, you love me either way

D5 A5 G5 D5
You stay
