Slipping away 'til it's dim in the dark The flame that was strong has become just a spark But I'll wait for you Now when we talk your eyes look away The thing that we had has wandered astray I'll wait for you Further and further we're drifting apart We knew this would happen right from start But I'll wait for you Caught up in troubles that don't mean a thing You're ready to fly for a prayer on a wing But I'll wait for you Say you were never in love with me But I'll still wait for you Oh it's just the way it's meant to be You tell me no but in won't be long before you see You're walking back to me The road you are following it's a dead end And who will be there when you need a real friend I will wait How are we gonna get back to the start They're too close to home these matters of heart Say you were never in love with me But I'll still wait for you Oh it's just the way it's meant to be You tell me no but in won't be long before you see You're walking back to me You're walking back to me Ducking and diving Sneaking and hiding These worries And these troubles Don't you know They'll catch up with you You're walking back You're walking back to me Oh it's just the way it's meant to be You tell me no but in won't be long before you see You're walking back to me
