I'Ll Follow You Like Your Duckling

I'm like your duckling, dear I follow wherever you roam so have no fear I'm your duckling, so don't disappear Be my dependable leader I'll stick around and I'll abide by your side Like a shadow...(3) Wie ein Schatten...(2) I mimic like your duckling, beloved I swim wherever you paddle so slip on my gear Be my trustable coach I'll follow your routine and float by your side Like a reflection...(3) Wie ein Spiegelbild...(2) I'll follow you wherever you flee Just signal where we ought to be I'll follow you wherever you take wing Just push me back and forward like a swing Lift me up and pull me down And I'll follow you Like your pesky duckling Take wing, my darling angel I'll watch your Devine flight and wave a farewell Someday I'll dwell with you But I'll be your duckling and will always have you to turn to Like a hero! (3) Wie ein Held! (2) Like a shadow...(3) Wie ein Schatten...(2) Like a reflection...(3) Wie ein Spiegelbild...(2) I'll follow you like your ugly duckling
