Lyrics:
“Walk Through This World With Me”
Walk through this world with me,
Go where I go
Share all my my dreams with me,
I need you so
In life we search and some of us find
I’ve looked for you a long, long time.And now that I’ve found you,
New horizons I see
Come take my hand
And walk through this world with me.Walk through this world with me,
Go where I go
Share all my dreams with me,
I searched for you so.And now that I’ve found you,
New horizons I see
Come take my hand,
And walk through this world with me.Come take my hand,
And walk through this world with me…
