Tomorrow Is a Long Time

[Verse 1]
If today was not a crooked highway
If tonight, I could finally stand tall
If tomorrow wasn't such a long time
Lonesome would mean nothing to you at all

[Chorus]
Only if my own true love was waiting
If I could only hear her heart a-softly pounding
Only if she was lying by me
I'd lie in my bed once again

[Verse 2]
Can't see my reflection in the waters
Can't speak the sounds that know no pain
Can't hear the echo of my footsteps
Don't know the sound of my own name

[Chorus]
Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting
If I could only hear her heart a-softly pounding
Only if she was lying by me
And I'd lie in my bed once again

[Verse 3]
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 touch the beauty
That I remember in my true love's eyes

[Chorus]
Only if my own true love was waiting
If I could only hear her heart a-softly pounding
Only if she was lying by me
I'd lie in my bed once again
