Wasn't Born To Follow Lyrics - Singles - Dusty Springfield

(Gerry Goffin / Carole King) 

Though I'd rather go and journey 

Where the diamond crescents glowing 

Run across the valleys 

Beneath the sacred mountain 

And wander through the forest 

Where the trees of leaves are prisms 

That break the light of day into colours 

That no-one knows the names of 

And when it's time 

I go and wait beside 

A legendary fountain 

'Til I see your form reflected 

In it's clear and jewelled water 

And if you think I'm ready 

You may lead me to the chasm 

Where the rivers of our vision 

Flow into one another

Cleanse my mind and body 

And I know at the moment 

As I stand in that cathedral 

I will want to dive in 

The white cascading water, water, water 

He may beg 

And he may plead 

He may argue with his logic 

He can mention all the things I'll lose 

That really have no value 

Though I doubt that he will ever come 

To understand my meaning 

In the end he'll surely know 

I was not born to follow 

I was not born to follow 

I wasn't born to follow, no, no 

I wasn't born to follow 

I wasn't born to follow, no, no 

I wasn't born to follow 

I wasn't born to follow 

Said I...
