If today was not a crooked highway If tonight I could finally stand tall If tomorrow wasn't such a long time Then lonesome would mean nothing to me at all Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin' Only if she was lying by me Then I'd lie in my bed once again I can't see my reflection in the waters 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 Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting Yes, if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin' Only if she was lying by me Then I'd lie in my bed once again There's beauty in the silver singin' river There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky But none of these and nothing else can mach the beauty That I remember in my true love's eyes Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting If I could only hear her heart a-softly poundin' Only if she was lying by me Then I'd lie in my bed once again Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting If I could only hear her heart a-softly poundin' Yes, and only if she was lying by me And I'd lie in my bed once again

I spent a long time Watering a plant made out of plastic And I curse the ground for growing green I spent a long time Substituting honest with sarcastic And I curse my tongue for being mean Weightless, breathless restitute Motionless and absolute He cut me open Sucked the poison from an aging wound Now fifty thousand war cadets Would cower at this small brunette To my surprise, not six feet high Would reach and grab the moon if I should ask Or just imply that I wanted a bit more light So I could look inside his eyes And get the colors just right Just right, just right Just But love built, God built provinces Build calluses, break promises 'Cause I could never hold a perfect thing And not demolish it What am I thinking? What does this mean? How could somebody ever love me? Talk to your man, tell him he's got bad news comin'
