The 10th track on Walk the Moon’s self-titled album. This song is rather complex structurally, as it starts in 6/4 time, then transitions into 4/4 time, then overlays them both at the end. This song talks about needing someone to stay with them through whatever unknown futures lay ahead.
[Verse 1]
I saw a glimpse, a shimmer a shadow
Or something I had once
But since lost and now I
I've got a feeling that I'm not complete anymore
Don't even tell me where we are going
Hands over my eyes, hands over my eyes
Don't even tell me where we are going
Just walk, just walk by my side
[Verse 2]
It starts with a glimpse, a shimmer a shadow
Or something I had once
But since lost and now I
I've got a feeling that I'm not complete anymore
The salt in my eyes
As I clear the border
Imaginary lines
Shatter and shimmer
I get to you to ask you a question
I get to you to find out for certain
Are you fixin'...?
[Chorus]
Don't even tell me where we are going
Hands over my eyes, hands over my eyes
Don't even tell me where we are going
Just walk, just walk by my side
Don't even tell me where we are going
Hands over my eyes, hands over my eyes
Don't even tell me where we are going
Just walk, just walk by my side
Just walk by my side
[Bridge]
Are you fixin'
To come with me?
Are you fixin'
To fix me?
[Chorus]
Don't even tell me where we are going
Hands over my eyes, hands over my eyes
Don't even tell me where we are going
Just walk, just walk by my side
Don't even tell me where we are going
Hands over my eyes, hands over my eyes
Don't even tell me where we are going
Just walk, just walk, just walk, just walk by my side
Just walk by my side
