LEAD THE WAY
(lyrics: Vanessa Jacquemin)
(composer: Alex Jacquemin)


GONNA SELL MY SECRETS TO THE DEVIL
PARADISE WILL TAKE ME IF I’M CLEAN
BETTER SAVE MYSELF THE TIME AND TROUBLE
HE CONTROLS EVERYTHING

I’LL TRY TO COVER MY POTENTIAL
IT’S THE ONLY WAY HE’LL LET ME IN
WALKING TO HIS DOOR I FALL AND STUMBLE
HOW CAN THIS BE FOR REAL?

BUT DOES HE HAVE TO BE SO COLD?
I DON’T KNOW
MAYBE IT’S THE GAME HE PLAYS
WOULD IT BE SO HARD TO LOVE US AS WE ARE?
CAN HE LOVE ME THAT WAY?
‘CAUSE MY HEART WOULD FOLLOW

LEAD THE WAY
LEAD THE WAY, OH, OH
LEAD THE WAY
LEAD THE WAY, EH, EH

HE SAYS HE’S GOT THE ANSWER TO THE PUZZLE
BUT IT WILL COST YOU SO MUCH TO BE FREE
HE’LL FIX YOUR MIND AND HAVE YOU SEEING DOUBLE
WON’T EVEN FEEL A THING

IS HE CRAZY OR A FOOL?
I DON’T KNOW
WAS A FOOL TO CALL HIS NAME
IS THERE ANOTHER ONE WHO CAN LOVE ME FROM AFAR?
WHO CAN LIVE WITHOUT PRAISE?
SAY THE WORD I’LL FOLLOW

LEAD THE WAY
LEAD THE WAY
LEAD THE WAY
LEAD THE WAY
