Lyric Tomorrow Is Such A Long Time

(Bob 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

Ah but only if my own true love is waitin
Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly poundin
only if she were lying by me
would I rest in my bed once again

I can t see my reflection in the mirror
I can t speak the sounds that show no pain
I can t hear the echoes of my footsteps
and can t remember the sound of my own name

Ah but only if my own true love is waitin
Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly poundin
only if she were lying by me
would I rest in my bed once again

There s beauty in the silver singin river
There s beauty in the sunlight in the sky
But none of these, and nothing else
can steal the beauty
that I remember in my true love s eyes

Ah but only if my own true love is waitin
Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly poundin
only if she were lying by me
would I rest in my bed once again
