I was running toward you
crossing the frozen water
the shimmering floor betrayed me
but you would come just in time

ever the faithful one you are
ever the faithful one you always are

swimming through the angry sea
I saw you swimming toward me
the wind and the waves about me
but you would come just in time

ever the faithful one you are
ever the faithful one you always are

quite a long time from now when
I have grown old and weary
you will still be near me
and I will be nearer you

ever the faithful one you are
ever the faithful one you always are
