Just think what a day's rain can do—

A bridge once between us is lost,

I set it to sway

And now here I stay

Till it's cold enough to cross



I stand on the bank watching on—

You wade in the flood and I'm lost,

You're calling my name

But I wait just the same

Till it's cold enough to cross



Just think what I know time will tell—

What keeps me from you so lost,

It's not the water you wade

But that I wait afraid

Till it's cold enough to cross
