Lyrics: Bob Dylan
Music: 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 me at all
Chorus
Yes and only if my own true love was waiting
And if I could hear her heart softly pounding
Only if she was lying by me
Would I lie in my bed once again
I can't see my reflection in the water
I can't speak the sounds that know no pain
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps
I can't remember the sound of my own name
[Chorus]
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 match the beauty
That I remember in my true love's eyes
[Chorus]
