Baby, stay with me
You know I will never give up
Sometimes when the rain falls down
I wait there until it is done
Patiently I wait for thee
Prayers for me
Aren't enough
So many waterways leading out
Why'd we
Give it up?

Your boat goes by
Down to the waterfall
And the time goes by
Like trees on the riverbanks
And your time rushing by
Down to the waterfall
I hear you call
I know you'd sound amazed if you'd
Hold on to your love
It might not be coming back
If you hold on to your love
It might not be coming back

Baby, I didn't mean to come
Have I interrupted your fun?
Maybe, if I could've known
I would have waited until it was done
Patiently, I wait for thee
"Pray for me" ain't enough
So many waterways leading out
Why'd we
Give it up?

And your boat goes by
Down to the waterfall
And time goes by
Like trees on the riverbanks
Your time rushing by
Down to the waterfall
I hear your call
I know you'd sound amazed if you'd
Hold on to your love
It might not be coming back
Hold on to your love
It might not be coming back

Wipe off your tears
Pick up your feet
'cause you got miles and miles and miles and miles to go yet -
If anyone makes you feel
You've been waiting too long
Oh, I've been waiting for you
I been waiting for you

If you hold on to your love
It might not be coming back
Hold on to your love
It might not be coming back
