GCG
If today was not an endless highway
CG
If tonight was not a crooked trail
CDG
If tomorrow wasn't such a long time
CDG
Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all
CDG
Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting
CDG
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a softly pounding
CDG
Only if she was lying by me
CDG
Then I'd lie in my bed once again.
GCG
I can't see my reflection in the water
CG
I can't speak the sounds that show no pain
CDG
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps
CDG
Or can't remember the sound of my own name
CDG
Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting
CDG
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a softly pounding
CDG
Only if she was lying by me
CDG
Then I'd lie in my bed once again.
GCG
There's beauty in the silver, singing river
CG
There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky
CDG
But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty
CDG
That I remember in my true love's eyes.
CDG
Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting
CDG
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a softly pounding
CDG
Only if she was lying by me
CDG
Then I'd lie in my bed once again.
