Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

I found a door behind the orchard wall

Moss on the hinges green as summer glass

A lantern hummed and led me down

Past the sleeping river past the hollow stone

Pre-Chorus

And the trees leaned in to listen

And the moon hung like a coin

Every branch began to glisten

Like a secret I could join

Chorus

Follow me down

Follow me down

Where the wild roses grow

Where the foxes wear their crowns

Follow me down

Follow me down

Take my hand and don't look back

We are nearly homeward bound

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

La-la-la

La-la-la

Verse 2

A cricket kept the rhythm on his knee

A badger poured the honey into cups

We traded names with every stranger there

And nobody asked where I had come from

Pre-Chorus

And the ferns uncurled like fingers

And the wind forgot to blow

Every note began to linger

Soft and slow so soft and slow

Chorus

Follow me down

Follow me down

Where the wild roses grow

Where the foxes wear their crowns

Follow me down

Follow me down

Take my hand and don't look back

We are nearly homeward bound

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

La-la-la

La-la-la

Bridge

Morning will come

Morning will call

I will keep this little world

Tucked behind the orchard wall

Chorus

Follow me down

Follow me down

Where the wild roses grow

Where the foxes wear their crowns

Follow me down

Follow me down

Take my hand and don't look back

We are nearly homeward bound

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

La-la-la

La-la-la
