[00:09.36] If today was not an endless highway,
[00:21.81] If tonight was not a crooked trail,
[00:28.78] If tomorrow wasn't such a long time,
[00:36.35] Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all.
[00:44.93] Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin',
[00:50.34] Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin',
[00:57.29] Only if she was lyin' by me,
[01:05.49] Then I'd lie in my bed once again.
[01:15.84] I can't see my reflection in the waters,
[01:33.53] I can't speak the sounds that show no pain,
[01:41.35] I can't hear the echo of my footsteps,
[01:48.36] Or can't remember the sound of my own name.
[01:55.77] Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin',
[02:01.98] Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin',
[02:10.87] Only if she was lyin' by me,
[02:17.17] Then I'd lie in my bed once again.
[02:40.70] There's beauty in the silver, singin' river,
[02:48.17] There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky,
[02:53.32] But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty
[03:00.16] That I remember in my true love's eyes.
[03:08.18] Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin',
[03:15.53] Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin',
[03:22.62] Only if she was lyin' by me,
[03:30.04] Then I'd lie in my bed once again.
