 We said we'd walk together

Baby come what may

Back from the twilight

 Should we lose our way

 As we were walking

 A hand should slip free

 I'll wait for you

 Should I fall behind wait for me

Swore we'd travel together

Darlin' side by side

We'd help each other

 Stay in stride

 Each lover steps on

 So differently

 So I'll wait for you

 Should I fall behind wait for me

Everyone dreams of

 A love lasting and true

 You and I know what this world can do

 So let's make ourselves be

 That the other may see

 And I ll wait for you

 Should I fall behind wait for me

Break

 There's a beautiful river

In the valley ahead

There 'neath the oak's bough

 Soon we will wed

 Should we lose each other

 In the shadow of the evening dreams

 Oh, I ll wait for you

 Should I fall behind wait for me

 Darlin' I'll wait for you

 Should I fall behind wait for me

Wait for me

 If I should fall behind wait for me

Wait for me . . .
