Jeanne Rose: Song Lyrics

Lead the Way

(Jeanne Rose)
2009
Jeanne Rose
While sitting in a wonderful little dinner house with someone very dear to me, his words spilled out befor me. His thoughts open, honest, and tender, as I listened while feeling deeply each thought he share within my own self. This was an evening of deep, heart-felt honesty and is most deserving of becoming a song, one that is very special, as he too is to this day.

If we would all "Lead the Way", the world would be filled with love, the kind of love each of us is most deserving of. Enjoy, and may you carry this song with you qhile on your own life's journey.
Lead the Way

The night it was early
Must have been Thursday
The candle light flickered
Then danced crossed your face
The past it has scarred us
Barbed wire now guards us
How will love find us
When we’re so damn afraid?

Who’ll ever know us?
Who’ll ever show us?
Who’ll ever love us?
Who’ll choose to stay?
No one can know us
No one will show us
No one can love us
Til’ we lead the way

You sat there before me
Your story unfolding
Your heart it was open
And a tear lead the way
I wanted to hold you
I wanted to mend you
Instead, I sat frozen
What could I say?

Who’ll…

(Instrumental)

Why let love scar us
When joy it could bring us?
If only we’re willing
Love may come our way
Guess I’ll take the first step
And you can just follow
Why keep fear inside us?
Let love lead the way
