Tomorrow Is A Long Time |
| If today was not an endless highway, |
| If tonight was not a crooked trail, |
| If tomorrow wasn’t such a long time, |
| Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all. |
| Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin', |
| Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin', |
| Only if she was lyin' by me, |
| Then I’d lie in my bed once again. |
| I can’t see my reflection in the waters, |
| I can’t speak the sounds that show no pain, |
| I can’t hear the echo of my footsteps, |
| Or can’t remember the sound of my own name. |
| Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin', |
| Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin', |
| Only if she was lyin' by me, |
| Then I’d lie in my bed once again. |
| There’s beauty in the silver, singin' river, |
| There’s beauty in the sunrise in the sky, |
| But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty |
| That I remember in my true love’s eyes. |
| Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin', |
| Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin', |
| Only if she was lyin' by me, |
| Then I’d lie in my bed once again. |
