Tomorrow Is A Long Time - Rod Stewart

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 waiting

Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly pounding

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 waiting

Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly pounding

Only if she were lying by me

Would I rest

in my bed once again

There's beauty in the silver singing 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 waiting

Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly pounding

Only if she were lying by me

Would I rest in my bed once again

Ah but only if my own true love is waiting

Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly pounding

Only if she were lying by me

Would I rest in my bed once again
