If I Should Fall Behind - Paul Carrack

We said we’d walk together, come what may

If in the twilight should we lose our way

If as we’re walking a hand should slip free

I’ll wait for you, if I should fall behind, wait for me

We swore we’d travel, side by side

We’d help each other stay in stride

But each lover’s steps fall so differently

I’ll wait for you, if I should fall behind, wait for me

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

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 where we soon will be wed

But if we lose each other in the shadow of the evening trees

I’ll wait for you, if I should fall behind, wait for me

Darling, I’ll wait for you, if I should fall behind, wait for me

Oh, I’ll wait for you, if I should fall behind, wait for me
