Lately, I've been the quiet one,
Waiting,searching the lines of the 
Songs you played for me.
Sailing into the misty air, 
Fading, bound for I don't know where, 
When I'm there, I'll see.
 
And if I walk away, 
Please follow me, 
If I walk away, 
Please follow me. 
Weightless, drifting through stars I got 
Faithless, woke in the dark and I 
Made this from my dream. 
Play me all your sweet rhymes 
Recreate me, now comes the time when I'll 
Need your truth to see. 
And if I walk away, 
Please follow me, 
If I walk away, 
Please follow me.
 
Walk away, 
Let the fear fall away, 
Into the fire you made, 
Scarlet and gold. 
Walk away, 
Head for the light of day, 
Follow a brighter way, 
Out of the cold and dark, 
Down to the one bright spark 
Futures that all might start 
Someday. 
So, if I walk away, 
Please follow me, 
If I walk away, 
Please follow me.
 
Fragments, shells of a long ago lifetime, 
Faces that once were mine, 
Thrown down by the sea.
If I walk away, 
Please follow me, 
If I walk away, 
Would you please follow me.
 
	
It might mean that the singer is afraid -- he might prove faithless more or less by accident; he's asking the lover to find the strength to pursue him if he wanders. Some men are worth pursuing.
