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 me at all.

Chorus:
Yes' 'n' only if my own true love was waiting if i could hear
Her heart softly pounding.
Only if she were lying by me, i'd lie in my bed once again.

I can't see my reflection in the water. 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.

(chorus)

There's beauty in the silver singing river. there's beauty in
The sunrise in the sky.
But none of these and nothing else can match the beauty that i
Remember in my true love's eyes.

(chorus)
