Tonight I'll be trudging through the foggy gloom
In search of of a lost murderess
She said I will wait for you
While the mist under a sallow-sick Moon
Flickers on the light of her dress
She said I will wait for you
She said you know I'll wait -
You know that I'll wait for you
And she said if I come first
I'll still be waiting for you
Now nude in the night of the knowing
We search for a new nothingness
She said I will wait for you
And later that wax will be glowing
From our marks of loving and lust
She said I will wait for you
She said you know I'll wait -
You know that I'll wait for you
And she said if I come first
I'll still be waiting for you
I'll wait for you all night, I'll wait for you in the light
I'll wait for you despite the cold and my plight
I'll wait while we breath and I will wait while we kiss
I'll wait for you always, you understand this
She said if I come first
I will always be waiting for you
I said if you make love to me
I'll push back these reeds while you play
She said I will wait for you
She said if you make love to me
You'll go down on a knee and I'll pray
She said I will wait for you
She said you know I'll wait -
You know that I'll wait for you
And she said if I come first
I'll still be waiting for you
