We said we'd walk together, baby, come what may |
|
That come the twilight should we lose our way |
|
It's as if we were walking and a hand should slip free |
|
You know, I'll wait for you |
|
And should I fall behind, wait for me |
|
We swore we'd travel, darling, always side by side |
|
We'd help each other stay in their stride |
|
But each lover's steps, they fall so differently |
|
You know, I'll wait for you |
|
If I should fall behind, please, wait for me |
|
If I should fall behind |
|
Now everyone dreams of a lover lasting and true |
|
Oh, but you and I know what this world can do |
|
So let's make our steps clear so each other can see |
|
You know, I'll wait for you |
|
And if I should fall behind, wait for me |
|
Now there's a beautiful river in the valley ahead |
|
Underneath the old oak's bough where we soon shall be wed |
|
But should we lose each other in the shadows of the evening trees |
|
You know, I'll wait for you, should I fall behind |
|
If I should fall behind, I know, I hope you'll wait for me |
|
You said we'd walk together, baby, come what may |
|
That come the twilight if we should ever lose our way |
|
And as if we're walking and a hand should slip free |
|
You know, I'll always wait for you |
|
And should I fall behind, wait for me |
