If I Should Fall Behind
Eternal Love's Promise: If I Should Fall Behind by Rose Cousins
Lyrics
We said we'd walk together baby come what may
We promised to walk together, no matter what challenges come our way.
That come the twilight should we lose our way
If we get lost during the difficult times, especially in the twilight of our lives.
If as we're walkin' a hand should slip free
If one of us falters or slips away while walking together.
I'll wait for you
I will wait for you.
And should I fall behind
In case I fall behind or face difficulties.
Wait for me
Please wait for me.
We swore we'd travel darlin' side by side
We committed to travel together, supporting each other side by side.
We'd help each other stay in stride
We vowed to help each other maintain a consistent pace.
But each lover's steps fall so differently
However, the steps of lovers may vary.
But I'll wait for you
Regardless, I will wait for you.
And if I should fall behind
If I happen to fall behind or face challenges.
Wait for me
Please wait for me.
Now everyone dreams of a love lasting and true
Many dream of enduring and true love, but we recognize the challenges of the world.
But you and I know what this world can do
We acknowledge the realities of life and relationships.
So let's make our steps clear that the other may see
Lets make our intentions and actions clear to each other.
And I'll wait for you
I will wait for you, even if I fall behind.
If I should fall behind
Should I face difficulties or slow down, wait for me.
Wait for me
Reiterating the commitment to wait for each other.
Now there's a beautiful river in the valley ahead
Describing a beautiful river in the future where they will be wed.
There 'neath the oak's bough soon we will be wed
Referring to a significant moment under the oak's bough.
Should we lose each other in the shadow of the evening trees
If they lose each other in the challenges of life.
I'll wait for you
Committing to wait for each other.
And should I fall behind
If one of them faces setbacks or falls behind.
Wait for me
The assurance to wait for the other.
Darlin' I'll wait for you
Expressing love and commitment to wait for the partner.
Should I fall behind
Repeating the commitment to wait if one falls behind.
Wait for me
A final plea to wait for each other.
