Dear friend, there's a story going round that says you're gonna be married soon, but you've been saying that for years, and there can be no wedding without a groom,
Oh, he said he went a way to make a place for you and him,
Oh, you know he's gonna come back, but you just don't know when.

Dear friend, he is not slow in keeping his promises, as some understand slowness to be,
Keep a watch out, don't lose faith,
He said he would come for you,
He's gonna come for you, you wait and see...just wait and see.

Dear friend, people joke, they laugh and make fun when they hear you talking all about the groom who's gonna come,
He's been gone a long, long time,
Are there any doubts to confess'
Do you wonder if you will ever wear that wedding dress'

He's gonna come for you, you wait and see.
