Nickel Creek - 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 |
|
Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting |
|
If I could hear his heart softly pounding |
|
Yes, and only if he was lying by me |
|
Would I 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 remember the sound of my own name |
|
Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting |
|
If I could hear his heart softly pounding |
|
Yes, and only if he was lying by me |
|
Would I lie in my bed once again |
|
There's beauty in that silver singing river |
|
There's beauty in that 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 waiting |
|
If I could hear his heart softly pounding |
|
Yes, and only if he was lying by me |
|
Would I lie in my bed once again |
