       G            A        D
    If only she was lying by me
             G         A

again

    I can't see my reflection in the
 water
    I can't speak the sounds that 
show 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
    If I could hear her heart softly
 pounding
    If only she was lying by me
    Then I'd lie in my bed once 
again
    There's beauty in the silver 
singing river
    There's beauty in the sunrise in
 the sky
    But none of these and nothing 
else could match the beauty
    That I remember in my true 
love's eyes
    Yes and only if my own true love
 was waiting
    If I could hear her heart softly
 pounding
    If only she was lying by me
    Then I'd lie in my bed once 
again
    If today was not an endless 
highway
    If tonight was not an endless 
trail
    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
    If I could hear her heart softly
 pounding
    If only she was lying by me
    Then I'd lie in my bed once 
again
