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 me at all
|
|
Yes and only if my own true love was waiting
|
And if I could hear his heart softly pounding
|
If only he was lyin' by me
|
And I'd lie in my bed once again
|
|
I can't see my reflection in the waters
|
Can't speak the sounds that show no pain
|
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps
|
Can't remember the sound of my own name
|
Yes and only if my own true love was waiting
|
And if I could hear his heart softly pounding
|
If only he was lyin' by me
|
And I'd lie in my bed once again
|
|
There is beauty in the silver singin' river
|
There is beauty in the sunrise in the skies
|
None of these and nothing else can match the beauty
|
That I remember in my true love's eyes
|
|
Yes and only if my own true love was waiting
|
And if I could hear his heart softly pounding
|
If only he was lyin' by me
|
And I'd sleep in my bed once again
|
