It's very possible - we'll have to wait for more information.

I'd be willing to place a small wager that it's Gordon Lightfoot's "Waiting
for You." A very small wager, however.
Waiting For You (Gordon Lightfoot)
Say what you will, I will miss you my friends
Let me move along for the road never ends
Vowing to live till the end of all time
All the way to the ends of the earth because I'm
Waiting for you to say you will be mine
Many long days, many long years
Many wrong plays, many wrong fears
I could be tossed in the arms of the sea
I could be caught between decks eternally
Waiting for you to ask what's keeping me
What would we do at the end of the day
When the hours are asleep and the time slips away
Children are all that the earth has to show
Children are all that the earth wants to know
Up here in the northland, up here in the snow
Up in the wilderness, land of our birth
Land of our toil, land of our worth
I could stay healthy and wealthy and wise
For I love the snow other snowbirds criticize
Tell that to a wife and you'll get a surprise
The skies of North America are covered in stars
Over factories and farms, over hamlets and bars
The breeze of North America is breathless at night
Out there in the distance some souls are in flight
Some soft-hearted lovers whose goals are in sight
Here in my on-again, off-again style
Here in my on-again, off-again smile
Here in my off-again, on-again grin
Here in my off-again, on-again skin
Waiting for you to say let us begin
Po' Trev

This is a favorite verse of mine-- beautiful imagery, I think. The album
Waiting for You is out of print, but easy to find in used-music stores as I
did. It is a shame Gord insists on the keyboards though-- they are what
really make his cover of "Ring Them Bells" on that album far inferior to
Bob's.
