Don't Follow Me

Alison Krauss (And Union Station) · Too Late To Cry [Rounder] [1987]

When I step on board that big jet plane

I'll be leaving our love behind

I hope it's wings will carry me somewhere

I can mend this heart of mine.



Chorus:

So don't follow me, don't follow me

I'm bound to a place I can't recall

I feel the big jet slice through midnight skies

I'll search for the answers alone

And wait for the time to go home.



Hear the wind outside, blowin' loud and strong

Hear the mighty engines moan

I'll be far from here when the sun comes up

With a love that has grown.



Chorus:

So don't follow me, don't follow me

I'm bound to a place I can't recall

I feel the big jet slice through midnight skies

I'll search for the answers alone

And wait for the time to go home.



I feel the wheels touch down as I awake

From a dream I've had of you

I hope a better day will find us soon

The love that we thought to be true.



Chorus:

So don't follow me, don't follow me

I'm bound to a place I can't recall

I feel the big jet slice through midnight skies

I'll search for the answers alone

And wait for the time to go home...
