Follow my heartbeat
Engelbert Humperdinck Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And made a wish for me
Than I threw in another one
Just in case it might take two
I’m closing my eyes and concentrating
Tell my pact and leave
I’m sending my love to you baby
Till you get the message from me
Just come a, come a, come a little closer baby
With every single step you take
To the end of the rainbow
On a yellow bricked road
And see what kind of magic we make
Follow, follow, follow my heartbeat
Follow, follow, follow my love
Follow, follow, follow my heartbeat
Follow, follow, follow my love
I got your number in my rollerdex baby
Underlined your name in red
I hope you’re feeling every love beat
I’m giving you the go ahead
So come a, come a, come a little closer baby
With every single step you take
To the end of the rainbow
On a yellow bricked road
And see what kind of magic we make
Follow, follow, follow my heartbeat
Follow, follow, follow my love
Follow, follow, follow my heartbeat
Follow, follow, follow my love
Follow, follow, follow my heartbeat
Follow, follow, follow my love
Follow, follow, follow my heartbeat
Follow, follow, follow my love
So come a, come a, come a little closer baby
With every single step you take
To the end of the rainbow
On a yellow bricked road
And see what kind of magic we make
Follow, follow, follow my heartbeat
Follow, follow, follow my love
Follow, follow, follow my heartbeat
Follow, follow, follow my love
Follow, follow, follow my heartbeat
Follow, follow, follow my love
Follow, follow, follow my heartbeat
Follow, follow, follow my love
