Tomorrow Is a Long Time - The Brothers Four (四兄弟)

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 you at all

Yes and only if my own true love was waitin'

Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly pounding

Only if she was lying by me

Then I'd lie in my bed once again

I can't see my reflection in the water

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 waitin'

If I could hear her heart a softly pounding

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 match the beauty

That I remember in my true love's eyes

Yes and only if my own true love was waitin'

If I could hear her heart a softly pounding

Only if she was lying by me

Then I'd lie in my bed once again

Then I'd lie in my bed once again
