We said we'd walk together baby come what may

That come the twilight should we lose our way

If as we're 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

Each lover's steps fall so differently

So I'll wait for you

And should I 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 lets make our steps clear that the other may see

And I'll wait for you

And 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 be wed

Should we lose each other

In the shadow of the evening trees

Oh, I'll wait for you

And should I fall behind wait for me

Darlin' I'll wait for you

And should I fall behind

Wait for me

Wait for me

(If I should fall behind) Wait for me

Wait for me
