Don't Go Where I Can't Follow

    I felt it right to share a song I wrote a few weeks ago, based on dear Sam Gamgee from The Lord of the Rings. Enjoy, if you wish! It’s just the words because I haven’t recorded it yet, but I have been inspired to do some more songwriting.

don’t go where I can’t follow

“don’t go where I can’t follow” - Samwise Gamgee

[verse 1]

said I’d follow you to the end

said I’d never go from your side

a poor man’s child

but all the while

I’ll stay with you, my friend

so don’t go where I can’t follow

don’t go where I can’t follow

[verse 2]

how I loved you, now you’re gone

how I need you, at the end

we’ve travelled far

beneath the stars

don’t leave me here, it’s wrong

so don’t go where I can’t follow

don’t go where I can’t follow

[verse 3]

now your eyes are closed, please wake up

now your skin is cold, please come back

I’m with you here

I’ll stay right here

though end of times should come

but you’ve gone where I can’t follow

you’ve gone where I can’t follow

[refrain]

please, don’t go where I can’t follow

don’t go where I can’t follow

Soli Deo Gloria,

Hannah
