There are cold and desert places In the depths of one’s own heart Waterless and empty And looking out Searching the horizon I saw the rainfall start Now it’s washing strong upon me And I have no doubt

CHORUS ✤ I could wait forever If I had to wait again For you to come and give me All your love my friend

There’s a star up in the north dear A diamond in the south A ring upon your finger And a song in your ear There’s an overwhelming urging For me to kiss your mouth It’s enough to keep me hungry For a thousand years

CHORUS ✤ I could wait forever If I had to wait again For you to come and give me All your love my friend

If in need you called me I’d walk the endless mile Or bind the chains upon me To set you free My comfort-heart without you Could go on but a while A wave tossed out of timing On a graceless sea

CHORUS ✤ But I could wait forever If I had to wait again For you to come and give me All your love my friend
