Lead Me On
Steve Holy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hear a voice in my head and I go crazy
Thinking 'bout the words that you said
And how you had some place you'd like to take me
So baby take me
It's your call, your move, oh, girl it's up to you
'Cause I know you know, I'm in your hands
So don't lead me wrong, lead me on
Now we're standing at your front door
And as I turn to go you touch me
As you take my hand you
You ask me if I will be staying
Said I'd been waiting on
Your call, your move, oh, girl it's up to you
'Cause I know you know, I'm in your hands
I'm so in love with everything you do
So don't lead me wrong, girl, lead me
Lead me on to something new
Something here tonight, baby, you
Baby, I will follow if you
You turn the lights down low and
As we're dancing slow you whisper
"It's your call, your move, baby, it's up to you
'Cause I know you know, I'm in your hands
I'm so in love with everything you do
So don't lead me wrong, lead me on
This love is so strong, lead me on, lead me on
Lead me on
