lyrics
You don’t have a ring, just the key to my heart
As long as you keep it safe, we’ll never part
We’ll have our quarrels. We can’t always agree
But I’ve never questioned, you’re the one for me
Never went down an aisle, never said that, “I do.”
But the moment our eyes met, our search was through
We had our first kiss, like we had done it before
We bought our first house. I carried you through the door
I’ll wait for you and send you a sign if I can
Wherever I go, whatever happens when a soul leaves a man
It doesn’t matter how long, years may pass, I don’t know
I’ll wait for you, if I’m the first one to go
I never went on a knee, and I never proposed
Didn’t think that I had to, that door has closed
We’ll grow old together, and our hair will turn grey
Our eyesight may fail, but our love’s here to stay
I’ll wait for you and send you a sign if I can
Wherever I go, whatever happens when a soul leaves a man
It doesn’t matter how long, years may pass, I don’t know
I’ll wait for you, if I’m the first one to go
Then comes a morning, when you wake before me
I know that you’ll understand, this is how it should be
Try to shake me awake, and don’t bother with the phone
With the key to my heart, you’re never alone
I’ll wait for you and send you a sign if I can
Wherever I go, whatever happens when a soul leaves a man
It doesn’t matter how long, years may pass, I don’t know
I’ll wait for you, if I’m the first one to go
