wade across the water

Iron & Wine

I saw you wade across the river
Winter coat across your shoulders
Calling out, what did you say?

If I wade across the water
When I rise will you be there
Holding on or turned the other way?

I saw you wade across the river
Handkerchief in your fingers
Just in case, well, just in case

If I lose to the water
Lose it all for you, lover
You were all I wanted anyway
