If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
'Till you’re back beside me, 'till I’m holding you
'Till I hear you sigh here in my arms
Anywhere you wander, anywhere you go Every day remember how I love you so In your heart believe
What in my heart I know
That forever more I’ll wait for you
The clock will tick away the hours one by one
And then the time will come when all the waiting’s done
The time when you return and find me here and run
Straight to my waiting arms
If it takes forever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you
'Till you’re here beside me, 'till I’m touching you
And forever more sharing your love
'Till you’re here beside me, 'till I’m touching you
And forever more I’ll wait for you
