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   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 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   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 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      (Repeat "I'll wait for you, etc........." three times and fade)
