Follow My Lead
Follow My Lead begins on the dance floor — a hand offered, a rhythm found, and the simple reassurance that you don't have to know every step. Just trust the music and follow my lead.
But as the song unfolds, the dance becomes something more. Missed steps become difficult days, unexpected turns become the surprises life throws our way, and holding someone's hand means far more than simply guiding them across a floor.
Set to a warm, classic big-band swing with the easy elegance of a 1950s nightclub, Follow My Lead is ultimately a song about trust, companionship, and facing an uncertain future together.
Because nobody knows all the steps.
Sometimes you lead.
Sometimes you follow.
The important thing is that you keep dancing together.

Lyrics
Come a little closer, darling,
Don't you worry 'bout your feet.
I've got you...
Just follow my lead.
Put your hand right here in mine,
Let the music take its time,
Don't go counting every step you make.
If you turn a little late,
Honey, I can always wait,
There's no move between us we can't make.
When I step left, you come along,
If we miss one, that's not wrong,
We'll find the rhythm where we need to be.
So follow my lead,
I'll bring you around,
Hold you close when the whole room
Is spinning around.
No need to know
Where every step goes,
Just stay here with me,
And follow my lead.
There'll be nights we lose the beat,
Days that sweep us off our feet,
Times the music doesn't sound quite right.
There'll be turns we never planned,
That's when you can take my hand,
And I'll be right beside you through the night.
We don't need to know what's next,
Life was never choreographed,
We'll make it up together, you and me.
So follow my lead,
I'll bring you around,
Hold you close when the whole world
Is spinning around.
No need to know
Where every road goes,
Just stay here with me,
And follow my lead.
And someday when my step gets slow,
And you're the one who knows the road,
I'll put my hand in yours and gladly say...
Darling, now you lead the way.
So follow my lead,
And I'll follow yours,
We'll dance through the good days
And weather the storms.
Wherever we go,
There's one thing I know:
As long as we're together,
We'll never dance alone.
No need to worry
What tomorrow may bring...
Take my hand, darling.
We'll make it swing.
One step at a time...
You and me.
