Wade Across The Water
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I saw you wade across the river
Winter coat across your shoulders
Calling out, what did you say?
If I wade across the water
When I rise will you be there
Holding on or turned the other way?
I saw you wade across the river
Handkerchief in your fingers
Just in case, well, just in case
If I lose to the water
Lose it all for you, lover
You were all I wanted anyway
