I'll Be Here in the Morning
There's no stronger wind than the one that blows
Down a lonesome railroad line
No prettier sight than lookin' back on a town you left behind
But there's nothin' that's as real as a love that's in my mind
Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while
Well, there's lots of things along the road
I'd surely like to see
I'd like to lean into the wind and tell myself I'm free
But your softest whisper's louder than the highways call to me
Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while
All the mountains and the rivers
And the valleys can't compare
To your blue lit dancin' eyes and yellow shining hair
I could never hit the open road and leave you lyin' there
Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while
Oh, lay your head back easy, love
Close your cryin' eyes
I'll be layin' here beside you when the sun comes on the rise
I'll stay as long as the cuckoo wails and the lonesome blue jay cries
Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while
Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while
Down a lonesome railroad line
No prettier sight than lookin' back on a town you left behind
But there's nothin' that's as real as a love that's in my mind
Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while
Well, there's lots of things along the road
I'd surely like to see
I'd like to lean into the wind and tell myself I'm free
But your softest whisper's louder than the highways call to me
Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while
All the mountains and the rivers
And the valleys can't compare
To your blue lit dancin' eyes and yellow shining hair
I could never hit the open road and leave you lyin' there
Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while
Oh, lay your head back easy, love
Close your cryin' eyes
I'll be layin' here beside you when the sun comes on the rise
I'll stay as long as the cuckoo wails and the lonesome blue jay cries
Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while
Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while
