When I was young I often said That there were ugly things beneath my bed I'd slip downstairs when I got scared Into the safety of Dad's easy chair That chair was like a long deep sigh And I'd stay until he'd say it's time But he'd always put his hand in mine And tell me "I'll go too." I'll go too I'll go too That's what he'd say That's what he'd do Don't go alone I'll walk with you I'll go too When I was learning how to swim I'd look down at the water and back at him He'd say "Take my hand, we'll both jump in. I'll go too." I'll go too I'll go too That's what he'd say That's what he'd do Don't go alone I'll walk with you I'll go too So many nights I've wondered So many things to brave So many acts of courage we face each and every day I put on my new white dress
I had my doubts if I could do the rest And he said "Take my hand just do your best. I'll go too." I'll go too I'll go too That's what he'd say That's what he'd do Don't go alone I'll walk with you I'll go too In the quiet cold of the April snow It was time to finally let her go I took his hand and said "I know. I'll go too." One day we all will understand As we walk right in to the Promised Land But I hope an angel takes me by the hand And tells me "I'll go too." I'll go too I'll go too That's what he'll say That's what she'll do Don't go alone I'll walk with you I'll go too I'll go too I'll go too That's what he'll say That's what she'll do Don't go alone I'll walk with you I'll go too I'll go too I'll go too
