We said we´d walk together baby come what may

That come the twilight should we lose our way

If as we were walking a hand should slip free

I'll wait for you

And should I fall behind

Wait for me



We swore we'd travel together darlin', side by side

We'd help each other stay in stride

But each lover's steps fall so differently

So I'll wait for you

And should I fall behind

Wait for me



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 I´ll wait for you

Should I fall behind

Wait for me



Now there´s a beautiful river in the valley ahead

And there ´neath the oak´s bough, soon we will wed

Should we lose each other

In the shadow of the evening trees

I´ll wait for you

And should I fall behind

Wait for me

Darlin´ I´ll wait for you

Should I fall behind

Wait for me

Oh, wait for me



If I should fall behind

Wait for me
