The sheet music:
Lyrics
You say you’re going away
You think that I’ll be lonely
Just as sad and blue as I can be
I’ll say if you’re going away
I’ve just one idea
Only don’t think you’ll ever get rid of me
Chorus:
Wherever you go, whatever you do
I want you to know, I’m following you
What ever you climb or tumble into
Why all of the time I’m following you
The battle won’t be half so hard
If you’ve someone to share it
I’ll gladly carry half the load
And what’s more, grin and bear it
You’re part of my heart
You know that it’s true
Whenever you start, I’m following you
