Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can I be committed is the question in my head
all the issues in my life keep holdin' me back
can I live up to the standard seems so hard to do
but then you tell me take my hand you'll help me make it through oohh

You ask me child do u love me
and I say yeah yeah yeah
but will you just give up everything

and follow me yeah yeah yeah.

We talk periodically,it should be everyday
can imagine how it would be if i let you lead the way
no broken hearts, less scars, less roads that never have an end
so I'll throw away my pride let down
my guard lord hear I am ooohhh.

You ask me child do u love me
and I say yeah yeah yeah
(but will u just) but will
you just give up everything
and follow me yeah yeah yeah.

When I just stop and think of all that you've done for me
How can I say anything but yeah(yeah)yeah(yeah)yeah(yeahhh)

You ask me child do u love me
and I say yeah yeah yeah
but will you just give up everything
and follow me yeah yeah yeah.

You ask me child do u love me

and follow me yeah yeah yeah.

You ask me child do u love me
and I say yeah yeah yeah

but will you just give up everything
and follow me yeah yeah yeah.
