You keep on walking on the other side, other side, other side
You keep on walking on the other side, other side, other side
Wherever you go I'm going with you
Shouldn't you know I'm bound to follow?
Whatever you say, whatever you do
I give you a clue, I'm gonna follow
[Chorus]
And the stars will show
Where the waters flow
Where the gardens grow
That's where I'll meet you
Why don't let me, let me come along, na na na, na na na
Why don't you open, make me come along, na na na, na na na
Wherever you go I'm going for you
Oh I was truly bound to follow
Like fire and wood, and paper and glue
Only a few were born to follow
[Chorus]
And the sun will glow
Melting all the snow
Knowing all I know
That's where I'll meet you
[Chorus]
And the sun will glow
Melting all the snow
Knowing all I know
That's where I'll meet you
Whatever you say, whatever you do
Whatever you do, I'm going with you
I'm going with you
And the stars will show
Every breeze will blow
Knowing all I know
That's where I'll meet you
That's where I'll meet you
You keep on walking on the other side, other side, other side
Wherever you go I'm going with you
Shouldn't you know I'm bound to follow?
Whatever you say, whatever you do
I give you a clue, I'm gonna follow
And the stars will show
Where the waters flow
Where the gardens grow
That's where I'll meet you
Why don't you open, make me come along, na na na, na na na
Wherever you go I'm going for you
Oh I was truly bound to follow
Like fire and wood, and paper and glue
Only a few were born to follow
Melting all the snow
Knowing all I know
That's where I'll meet you
Melting all the snow
Knowing all I know
That's where I'll meet you
Whatever you do, I'm going with you
I'm going with you
Every breeze will blow
Knowing all I know
That's where I'll meet you
That's where I'll meet you

Wow, no one else has commented on this song yet. It's really cool. I was hoping someone else could tell me what it meant because I'm not entirely sure myself.
OK, I'll take a whack at a meaning and I'm sure others will disagree but... at least what it means to me and my girls: Put simply, WE hear it as a Dominant/submissive dynamic, but it can be as simple as some lesser-commitment being dedicated to your lover... The key lines:
Wherever you go I'm going with you [I take guidance from you, with you always...] Shouldn't you know I'm BOUND to FOLLOW? [bound as in not capable to do otherwise.. she is compelled to follow] [bound could be subtle bondagey reference, if you like] Whatever you say, whatever you do I give you a clue, I'm gonna follow [As stated, she will follow his lead...] Why don't let me, LET me come along, Why don't you open, MAKE me come along, [LET as in "accept me into your service"] [MAKE as in "you have the right to compell me to follow] Wherever you go I'm going for you ["Going for you" = devotion... I serve you, your needs, your pleasure...etc.] Oh I was truly bound to follow [Again, that mixture of being born to submit/being bound other ways] Like fire and wood, and paper and glue Only a few were born to follow [True submission is not for everyone... but for those it 'fits', they are BORN to follow] And the sun will glow Melting all the snow Knowing all I know That's where I'll meet you [An artistic way of stating epiphany -- seeing this need for submission in yourself?] And the stars will show Every breeze will blow Knowing all I know [Stars = destiny, to submit] [knowing = that epiphany that what is right for you/your lover is unusual but still RIGHT]
OK, feel free to tell us we got it all wrong... :-)
