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
