We said wed walk together baby come what may That come the twilight should we lose our way If as were walkin a hand should slip free I'll wait for you And should I fall behind Wait for me
We swore wed travel darlin side by side Wed help each other stay in stride But each lovers steps fall so differently Girl I'll wait for you And if I should fall behind Wait for me
Now everyone dreams of a love lasting and true But you and I know what this world can do So let's make our steps clear that the other may see And girl I'll wait for you If I should fall behind Wait for me
Now there's a beautiful river in the valley ahead There neath the oaks bough soon we will be wed Should we lose each other in the shadow of the evening trees Girl I'll wait for you And should I fall behind Wait for me And girl I'll wait for you Should I fall behind Wait for me
