[Verse 1]
Ten years old
Running through the yard
Just a boy and a girl
Playing cowboys and outlaws
He was running fast
She's trying to keep up
She yelled his name
Loud as she could
Said, "Jesse James, wait up."
On a dime he stopped, turned, tipped his hat and smiled
He whispered to himself, "Girl, for the rest of my life
I'll wait for you."

[Chorus]
When you fall, when you're lost, when you're feeling scared
No matter what, say the word and I'll be there
When no one else seems to get what you'rе going through
I'll wait for you

[Verse 2]
Twelve years passеd
And that outlaw's on the run
He's got a notebook and a suitcase
And a guitar as his gun
She wipes away his tears
Says, "Babe, you gotta go
Get on that bus and chase your dreams
'Cause if you don't you'll never know."
The driver called for him as he kissed her goodbye
She said, "Don't worry, boy, for the rest of my life
I'll wait for you"

[Chorus]
When you fall, when you're lost, when you're feeling scared
No matter what, say the word and I'll be there
When no one else seems to get what you're going through
I'll wait for you
When you're sad, feeling down, think you're not enough
Close your eyes, picture me, lean in on love
Always know that my heart and these words are true
I'll wait for you

[Verse 3]
Well they're 24 now
That outlaw's all grown up
He's holding back his tears
Thinking through the years
Prays to god that she shows up
Then that organ played that song as she walked down the aisle
He whispered to himself, "Girl, for the rest of my life
I'll wait for you"

[Chorus]
When you fall, when you're lost, when you're feeling scared
No matter what, say the word and I'll be there
When no one else seems to get what you're going through
I'll wait for you
When you're sad, feeling down, think you're not enough
Close your eyes, picture me, lean in on love
Always know that my heart and these words are true
I'll wait for you
