Each time I see a crowd of people

Just like a fool I stop and stare

It's really not the proper thing to do

But maybe you'll be there



I go out walking after midnight

Along the lonely thoroughfare

It's not the time or place to look for you

But maybe you'll be there



You said your arms would always hold me

You said your lips were mine alone to kiss

Now after all those things you told me

How can it end like this



Someday if all my prayers are answered

I'll hear a footstep on the stair

With anxious heart I'll hurry to the door

And maybe you'll be there
