I Will Follow Lyrics
You were in a dream I had
Doing dishes at the laundry mat
And then you smiled at me
You said lets hide and seek
I’m gonna count to three
Where did you go
One step forward two steps back
So funny I forgot to laugh
You lead me down the garden path
And I will follow
I will follow
I saw you on a downtown street
Eating peaches in an apple tree
You said take my hand
We’ll be a marching band
They’ll love us in Japan
Where did you go?
One step forward two steps back
So funny I forgot to laugh
You lead me down the garden path
And I will follow
I will follow
Doing dishes at the laundry mat
And then you smiled at me
You said lets hide and seek
I’m gonna count to three
Where did you go
So funny I forgot to laugh
You lead me down the garden path
And I will follow
I will follow
Eating peaches in an apple tree
You said take my hand
We’ll be a marching band
They’ll love us in Japan
Where did you go?
So funny I forgot to laugh
You lead me down the garden path
And I will follow
I will follow

"one step forward two steps back" I think it's about someone she's like really into, so much so she can't stop herself from going along with everything he says- "i will follow" i think the "where did you go?" part represents that he's not around anymore. She still misses him, perhaps she was always a "doormat" to him.
In my experience, i once fell for a one night stand. I often had dreams about him, and each time i'd do whatever i could to have him again, each time it wouldn't work out somehow. "so funny i forgot to life" kind of represents my sarcasm and despair of this dream.X

This song is pop perfection, I love it. As far as the meaning, I've only just started to listening to it so I'm not sure yet, I might have to add onto that later.
