Tomorrow Is A Long Time (Why Should the Fire Die? 2005)

Текст песни Nickel Creek - Tomorrow Is A Long Time (Why Should the Fire Die? 2005)

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Yes and only if my own true love was waiting
If I could hear his heart softly pounding
Yes and only if he was lyin' by me
Would I lie in my bed once again?

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Yes and only if my own true love was waiting
If I could hear his heart softly pounding
Yes and only if he was lyin' by me
Would I lie in my bed once again?

[Verse 3]
There's beauty in that silver singin' 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
[Chorus]
Yes and only if my own true love was waiting
If I could hear his heart softly pounding
Yes and only if he was lyin' by me
Would I lie in my bed once again?
