Come With Me
Jeni Varnadeau Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eccl. 4:9-11; Rom. 12:4-8
Jeni Varnadeau
I don't wanna walk on this journey alone
Who's gonna come with me
I don't wanna take this journey all by myself
Who's gonna come with me
Life's an adventure that we all must explore
Too unknown and too exciting not to share it
So if we can walk together
Then we can help each other through it
I don't wanna walk on this journey alone
Who's gonna come with me
I don't wanna take this journey all by myself
Who's gonna come with me
It's a long hard road that we all must go down
And I don't think the path will be smooth, no
But it'll be worth it in the end
But we can never get there if we never begin
I don't wanna walk on this journey alone
Who's gonna come with me
I don't wanna take this journey all by myself
Who's gonna come with me
It's a long way to walk
When you're tired and confused
It's a long way to walk
When you're feeling abused
It's a long way to walk




When you're walking alone
