Stewart, Rod - Tomorrow Is A Long Time Lyrics






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 waitin'
Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly poundin'
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 waitin'
Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly poundin'
only if she were lying by me
would I rest in my bed once again

There's beauty in the silver singin' 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 waitin'
Yes and if I could hear her heart a softly poundin'
only if she were lying by me
would I rest in my bed once again

  1. j.... ....

    Can't Remember the Sound of My Own Name.................Genius.

  2. j.... ....

    Perhaps.........
    The Greatest Love Song Ever Written.

  3. S.... R....

    Only Rod can do what he does

  4. M.... B....

    I love how these Brit blokes interpret Americana.

    M.... B....

    @Sgt Reckless Army vet lol, c'mon.

    M.... B....

    @Sgt Reckless Army vet Rod is a Brit as well as being English being born and raised in London (his father was Scottish) 
    All people of the 3 countries that make up the island of Great Britain - England, Wales and Scotland - are British.

    M.... B....

    Where the heck do you think "Americana" came from????

    M.... B....

    @Sgt Reckless Army vet You are joking aren't you? Or are you geographically challenged? In future, especially after Brexit (Britain's exit from the European Union) - Scotland might vote for independence - but until then - Scotland is very much part of Britain, as is Wales and Northern Ireland.

    M.... B....

    @jim farmer Yes, folk music... brought to America by immigrants. It took on a whole new life of its own & evolved - was the foundation of blues, jazz & many other side-shoots.

  5. T.... A....

    Rod's voice, Ronnie Wood's guitar......unbeatable!

    T.... A....

    And Dick Powell s violin

  6. J.... K....

    Rod Stewart, One of the few people who can add magic to a Bob Dylan tune !

    J.... K....

    He brings something special to every song he touches but you're right Bob Dylan songs must be rather intimidating!!

  7. m.... b....

    Nah aint feeling this cover. Just gimme the guitar and Bob.

    m.... b....

    I’m not feeling your comment

  8. M.... S....

    So many covers of this Dylan song but this is by far the best.

    M.... S....

    The Elvis version I think is best and Dylan agrees

    M.... S....

    @Price Pittsburgh There’s no Elvis version of this song. Elvis actually copied Odetta Holmes cover.

    M.... S....

    @Asif Saifullah Not according to Dylan and her version is sung lower alto. Elvis recorded plenty of rich baritone tracks but chose to sing this softer than her and higher.

  9. K.... N....

    Bob Dylan' tearjerker by Rod. I love it.

    K.... N....

    Bob Dylan wrote this? Do tell?

    K.... N....

    This a Bob Dylan song?

    K.... N....

    I had no idea?

    K.... N....

    yeah Lucy ,just one of a few of Dylans songs Rod covered , can,t separate this from Mama , you,ve been on my mind as my favourite , and theres also Girl from the north country , only a hobo, just like a woman. .

  10. S.... W....

    S.... W....
