Follow Me Home Lyrics

Lyric discussion by jdeekro 

Cover art for Follow Me Home lyrics by Dire Straits

Beautiful, hypnotic music with a macabre undertone that belies something a little sinister. Could it be about a village celebrating the sacrifice of a young lady...a ritual feast. The speaker in the lyrics is either Death or the executioner, on the tower, listening, waiting, thinking about the woman he is about to sacrifice. "He doesn't need a priest, he loves all the people..." Just a pleasant thought.
