Tomorrow Is A Long Time
Deadstein
Dylan
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 poundin'
Only if she was lyin'
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
show no pain
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps
Or can't remember the sound of my own
name
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.
