Sara Ramirez sings about the tension between wanting to follow someone and fearing what that surrender means. She asks for easier things than faith or love, but keeps returning to one promise: I will follow anywhere, and you will lead me there.
Ask me something easier, to smile, a kiss. Look, I'll give you anything, but don't ask me this. Don't ask for faith when there's no great supply. Don't ask for love when I'm just now beginning to feel it. Don't know quite why. Here comes the rain. Here come the waves, here comes the ocean. How to decide? What's there to risk? Why is the course so unclear? Practical fact, foolish emotion, terrible pride. What's there to fear? Take me from here. Here comes the ocean. And I will follow anywhere. I will follow and you will lead me there. Thank you. I should resist. I should refuse you. Ask me again. See how I'm strong. See how I keep my vow. Maybe I'll trip. Maybe I'll lose you. What happens then? What happens now? Just show me how, and I will follow anywhere. I will follow, and you will lead. Oh, all the voices that tell me to stand my ground. And oh, all the voices that beg me to stay. Oh, representing a life that I plan around. Do what's expected, do what's accepted, do what you're told to. Oh, all the voices that say, But till today, till today, every day, I will follow. Say anywhere, I will follow, and you will lead me there. Yeah. I will, I will follow. And you will lead me there. You will lead me there. You will lead me there. Whoo!
