Tomorrow Is a Long Time

If today was not a crooked highway If tonight I could finally stand tall If tomorrow wasn't such a long time Then lonesome would mean nothing to me at all Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin' Only if she was lying 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 know no pain I can't hear the echo of my footsteps I can't remember the sound of my own name Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting Yes, if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin' Only if she was lying 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 mach the beauty That I remember in my true love's eyes Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting If I could only hear her heart a-softly poundin' Only if she was lying by me Then I'd lie in my bed once again Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting If I could only hear her heart a-softly poundin' Yes, and only if she was lying by me And I'd lie in my bed once again
