We said we'd walk together, baby, come what may
Then come the twilight, should we lose our way
If as we're walkin' a hand should slip free
I'll wait for you
And should I fall behind
Wait for me

We swore we'd travel, darlin', side by side
We'd help each other stay in stride
But each lover's steps fall so differently
But I'll wait for you
And if I should fall behind
Wait for me

Now everyone dreams of love lasting and true
Oh, 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
And if I should fall behind
Wait for me

Now there's a beautiful river in the valley ahead
There 'neath the oak's bough soon we will be wed
Should we lose each other in the shadow of the evenin' trees
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
Yeah, I'll wait for you
And should I fall behind
Wait for me
I'll wait for you
And should I fall behind
Wait for me
