If Tomorrow Wasn't Such A Long Time
Bob Dylan

If today was not a crooked highway
If tonight was not a crooked trail
If tomorrow wasn’t such a long time
Then lonesome would mean nothin’ ta ya at all

Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin’
And if I could only hear her heart a softly poundin’
Yes, and only if she was lyin’ by me
Then I’d lie in my bed once again

I can’t see my reflections in the water
I can’t speak the sounds to show no pain
I can’t hear the echo of my footsteps
Or remember the sound of my own name

There’s beauty in that silver singing river
There’s a beauty in that rainbow in the sky
But none of these and nothin’ else can touch the beauty
That I remember in my own true love’s eyes
