I'll Go Too

When I was small I often said
There were ugly things beneath my bed
I'd slip downstairs when I got scared
To 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 always smiles and put his hand in mine
And say," I'll go too."

[Chorus]
"I'll go too, I'll go too"
That's what he'd say and 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 at the water and back at him
But he took my hand and said
"we'll both jump in"
And "I'll go too."

[Chorus]

So many nights I've wandered
So many things to brave
So many acts of courage
We face each and everyday

It was almost noon in a white lace dress
I had my doubts if I could do the rest
He said, "take my hand and just do your best"
"and I'll go too"

[Chorus]

So many nights I've wandered
So many things to brave
So many acts of courage
We face each and everyday

In a quiet place in the April snow
It was time to finally let her go
So I took his hand and said, "I know"
"I'll go too"

[Chorus]

Someday we all will understand
And we'll walk right into 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'd say and what she'll do
"don't go alone I'll walk with you
I'll go too."
