We Must Wait

Far across the deep blue sea
my only true love waits for me

But I can't seem to find the path
that leads me to my love at last

The ocean is so wide and deep
and promises that we can't keep

That we both made so long  ago
 how to keep them we don't know

I pray so hard each night and day
that some how we can find a way

And now I know and worry no more
we both can go from shore to shore

And find place that we both know
and to that island we  two will go

And if I get there before you do
I 'll stay right there and wait for you
